yea having an interior is nice. i went from my 92 with nothing in it to my 89 with full interior and its def different. but at the end of the day i think of it like, its not my luxery car, its my cheap project race car. besides, i already took the a/c out so everything else will be leaving as well LOL

might even take out all that rubber sound deadening crap this time (sucha *****)

First things first. Suspension is almost perfect for drag in stock form. Nice and soft for lots of weight transfer to the rear wheels on launch. The stiffer you get, the slower you'll be off the line.

245's are a decent tire when combined with a good launch rpm and a slip of the clutch. I'd be aiming towards 300WHP for an easy 13. More power is ALWAYS better.

But if it is your daily driver, you should keep it.

220whp with a good driver will net you about high 13's to low 14s
