well, the link was for low 13's. mid 12's is a whole 'nother ball game. i can get you into the high 13's on a budget, but after that, you better be ready to spend some serious cash to get to where i'm at. i have ~$4K in the engine with all the parts and labor in JUST the engine and exhaust. now i didn't pay that much cause i did all the labor and fabwork myself, but that's how much it would cost to duplicate the combo now. i have another ~$3K in the tranny/converter and rearend. again, that's parts and labor, and i didn't pay that much again cause i did all the labor myself...but setting up rearends and stuff is not something one can tackle without all the correct instrumentation. not wanting to scare you off, but just a reality check, you know? my car is a purpose built drag car that is on the edge of streetable. regardless, there is a parts list on my cardomain site. the link for that list is in my sig.
now, if your wanting to run high 13's, i can get you there pretty easily. a mild cam, ~2200stall converter and 3.73's will get you there, make sure you use the 416 heads from your lg4 though cause they are alot better than the lo3 heads...while the car is all apart, have those heads ported/polished and put in a 1.94 intake valve. look for a cam with ~214*/224* duration @ .050, run a holley 600 double pumper with a holley street dominator intake (p/n 300-36) and a set of 3.73's and you'll have enough power to anywhere you'd like and it'd run 13.7's for sure.
