I believe you are mistaken. Would you like to rephrase your response?
At the risk of sounding like a dick: Youve been to the worst places on earth, and like GM's and a so-so Mopar "suv", and this is supposed to make me think what now? Sorry, but all that sounds like one of my Chantix induced nightmares I've been having recently.

Now that thats over with. I think its very cool that you want to do something original and make a 12v fast, but like the others have said, the odds are surely against you. Everything will have to be custom, but you already know that. Hey, maybe you'll do it and then you can sell the parts to other 12v guys that want to waste a bunch of money
Oh, and you wont need to be anywhere near low 11's to break the 12v V6 record.

Depends on the tune(pump vs race) and who is driving.

You should be able to run high 12's even on pump gas with the b5 depending on who is driving. I ran a few B6's into the high 12's on race gas, but they are a bit heavier then the B5. I think the quickest Elim B5 ran 12.4 on a race gas tune.

It wouldnt suprise me at all if your car broke into the 12's kraut. I'd love to drive an elim b5 around for a bit just to see how they feel. Seems like such a good DD
