Are 11's possible without a power adder?
If so - how would you do it?

Guess it would be possible to take a Mark into the 11 second range NA with a big mountain motor. Just dont think it would be based on the 4.6. I would love to be proven wrong though.

if you can get a mustang to do it, y not a mark?
id say, race cams, head porting, sulivan intake, 4.30's and all the little goodies that go along with it could get you into at the least very low 12's. especially if you get the upgraded valve train that lets you rev past 8000 without worries, or w/e that job is.
bufordtpisser said:All of those cars were Mustangs. 500 lbs or more lighter. It would take serious HP to get a 4000 + lb Mark VIII into the 11's. Just remember, I did not say impossible, just that I seriously doubt it. And the cost factor alone would make Power Adders much more economical. Stroked 5.4, tubed, lightened, 9" rear with steep gears = very possible = very expensive.
MrWilson said:depends on what you concider streetable? Daily driver? or streetable? 2 diff things.
Joeychgo said:I do want it streetable and passing emmissions - streetable as a daily driver

when did you win the lottery?MrWilson said:welp im gonna try to get a mod motor built up for low 12's mabey high 11's N/A by this time next year... mark8 alum block .020 overbore, 302 stroker kit, stage 2 shm cams, high rev valvetrain with double valve springs for 8000 rpm rev limit (hopefully), stage 2 mach1/cobra heads (shm also) and probabily sulavin intake, and all the little goodies i need to upgrade along with that. ill figgure out the exhaust once it gets in the car. (prolly gonna have geno do that) The motor will probabily be finished by christmas 06, and on the street in the spring of 07. We will see then. This is a very ambitious project for me, but i think ittl be a reality within the timeframe i setup for myself. Im gonna need a lot of help with this project, im sure ill get a bunch of help from yall here on LVC. When im done with it, ill try to answer your question about 11's NA on a street car. i think 12s though.
PS: im gonna keep it as sleeper as possible.

95LSC32V said:Mr. Wilson, you have the right parts in mind but you need a budget upwards of $10,000 to get everything done right.
MrWilson said:yeah, i was just pricing everything out today, and it came to about $11.5...so, iv changed my mind on whats going down...im gonna forge the internals (ill see about the stroker kit still, i hope ill still be able to afford it though) get the heads ported, mildly upgrade the valvetrain, and put a kenne bell 1.7 on top. that comes to anywhere from about $7000-$8000 (pre install).
