Building 10 sec. car..What does it take?

[marleyskater420 5,000+ posts]

let me rephrase the question....since some of you get side tracked easily. On an estimate... how much money does one expect to spend to run 10s? n for those that run 10s..how much do you think they've spent overall to get it how it is? The labor going into making that machine run that fast is going to be way up there obviously. I'm looking to go without the nos. I'm not saying that this can be done overnight..it'll probably take years to build up an engine to push that car to its potential.But, if anyone has any insight on the costs..let me know..plz.

Fast N Furious didnt get me into racing... going to the races at the tracks last year did. I havent even seen that movie. I've seen cars running 11s at the tracks, n i can see the costs into building that car from the way they run. I'm asking a serious question here, no bs or anything.

If you want to ONLY have a drag car....bout 15-20k.

Local guy did this... old 5.0, gutted to 2600lbs. 500hp SBC408, new rear and tranny.

Just get an old beater,gut it to 2700 below lbs, new rearend,new trans, and a 600hp engine.

that's how to make a Ford fast...stick a SBC in there. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif

DAAAMN right.

I can't think of many "budget" ford cars out there. I just don't hear of many 351's that run 9's for 15k. Or a budget stang in the 10's for 20k.

I do however,see older stangs w/ SBC's in them //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

It takes alot more than a turbo and gears to go 10s

Put 4:10's on a fox mustang, w/ a Vortech T trom blower, and the necessities(injectors, plugs,plug wires, ignition, etc...), and it's quite possible. I have a friend w/ a 351 W, and the above stated ^, w/ 3:55 running a 10.3. Rand a 10.1 at Fun ford a few Weekends Back //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

Oh, and it's street legal //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/cool.gif.3bcaf8f141236c00f8044d07150e34f7.gif

^^^ werd.

What was the setup?

I was gonna do a budget buildup and sell my car...then I realized why not just make a 11 sec DD? I already have a 12 sec one...
