You'd have to do all the labor yourself and get a heck of a deal on some parts, but it could prbly be done. If i had a place (and money) i'd prbly do a RX7 with a SBC350 swap. No place or cash though :wtc:. Being a cheapass college students sucks :madfawk:.

[DvBoard]

for that much, i'd get a 1st gen DSM, again :hs:Why go high strung 4 instead of mid V8?

[coolymcoolster]

fox mustang

what i already have, need mod monies though :hs:

[DvBoard]

are you referring to the guys saying he'd put an LT1 in a 240 for $4k? that won't happen unless you have someone giving you parts.

but DSMs are known for making easy power. That's get you high 12s easily, if not better.
Well i have no idea how much a LT1 + Trans costs, but figuring he does all the custom fab work himself and doesn't charge labor, still crazy? :dunno:

Upgrade Sequencing — Stage 1
Take your car to as much as 300hp - and click off low 13's to high 12's in the 1/4 mile!


low 13s to high 12's = 12.40's :bowrofl:

At this point in the buildup, you should have spent no more than $1200, if you performed the labor yourself. Your car will now be nearing the 300hp mark. A really well-tuned Stage 1 AWD car can achieve ET's as quick as 12.40's at a trap speed of 109mph with these simple modifications.
