The t49 or 44 will get you 11's without much effort even if you still have old tech shit on your car. You just have to know how to pick whats good and what will make the vendors eat bigger steaks :D

Altho I have seen some do even more, that is pretty much perfect for most of us on a 49.  Guys are always talking about wanting to run tens...but, how many times will you ever be outrun on the street if you have an eleven second car?

Only the serious guys do that and there are not that many guys that hardcore.

A lot of broken parts does not make you a racer; it makes you a slow learner.

I get a lot of people asking me if I think I could beat a ____ or asking if they think I could keep up with a _____. They're all virtually stock V8's. One is a stock CTS-V. A friend of mine talks a mad game about how he's going to beat me in his 68' Bel-Air that ran 12's last I knew.
87 Turbo T - 4.1 484 block bored .030 over, Champion ported irons with ported intake, RJC power plate, Elgin 214/224 cam, 6776 turbo with RJC boost controller, stretched SLIC, 3\" THDP, Pypes dual exhaust, 4\" MAF pipe with 14\" K&N and Z06 MAF, 60# Mototrons, hot wired Walbro 340 with KB-BAP, Translator Gen 2 and Extender Extreme chip, Mike Kurtz built 200-4r, PPC 3200 stall, UMI upper and lower control arms, passenger side airbag, any hydroboosted.

20# Boost at 20* timing on 93 octane. No track times yet.

Alky install in progress.

Mike Schoenfeldt went 11.25 in a TTA with a stock converter and a PT51 which is slightly larger than a 49....probably between a 49 and a 60 if I recall correctly

Lean and some timing in first helps
