Yr right...now you're gilding the Lilly! You know full well the only reason that prostocker is running a carbie is because the rules tell them to!
I can tell you it used to take me half a morning and two runs for a plug chop to get my 250ci tripple SU powered XP hardtop to run into the 13s...with a little nitrous...any late model car will stay in tune months longer. Mine would change with the weather! My son's car will run tens any day of the week on a factory turbo and electronics with only a different wastegate and intercooler.
To quote a movie line..."His grandmother wouldn't be scared to ride in it" where my car ran a huge cam solid lifters and a 9inch that was more locked than it needed to...electronics are the go!
