First im brand new here and im looking to get rid of my restored 81 vette for a lightning, im looking at the 01+ for the 380HP engine, im wondering what time it will throw on the 1/4 with 1500$ or so of mods(no NOS) thanks alot.

 

Chip,Filter, 4# lower, colder plugs , FTVB ( valve body ). should cost arround $1,300 maybe a little more but that will get into the mid-hight 12s @ 108 or so in goood weather.
Stock you will run 13.5s-14.0s arround 98-100 mph depending on wether and track prep.

 

what more would it take to get me to low, to mid 12?

 

About $2500

Add an Apten ported blower to the other mods mentioned above, + a set of wheels and ET Streets, and don't forget the Lakewood traction bars and a driveshaft loop.

 

Agreed or go with what I mentioned + Drag rims skinnys up front with some stickies out back and add to that a stall convertor. Of course dont forget a DS loop and traction bars.

 

Hello aramtractor

I'm in the low-to-mid 12s with just some bolt ons. Check out my web page for mods and my timeslip.

Also, There is a very nice 01 for sale here in SE Mich. It's in tip top shape and I'd recommend at least talking to him about it.
