what can i do to reach the 12's?
i just recently got my truck to 13.33 at 98.74. this was with et streets in 55 degree weather. i have most all of the bolt ons that i can think of, i believe most are in my sig. i really want to get in the 12's n/a, but i dont know what else to do. i am going to get allen to raise my shift points from 1st 6500 to 6800 and 2nd 6300 to 6600. maybe that will help some. also my last runs were with all the normal weight reduction. if there are any other free mods or cheap mods i can do to get me there i would appreciate the help. also any tricks with tire pressure or any info on what tires to run on the front and maybe what size to run on the back. sorry all the questions, i just need some help to reach my goal. thanks

well i have the stock 3.73 gears. as far as weight reduction i remove the spare and the tailgate. i also take the passenger side headlight out. i try and leave around 1500 rpms and sometimes 2000. and i would like to do this without any headwork.

Most people also see a .1 or so with the underdrive pulleys. I know goshawk23 gained that and some with his. Might be something to look into on your quest to shave those last few tenths off. Hell, take the passenger seat out at the track. I know 01Thunder did that at the shootout to reach his goal of 13s with the 4.8L NA, now he's steadily knocking down the tenths.
What are your short times? Are you spinning at all?
