Would it make anything?

So would a 7970 mining 12 hours a day make anything? 

Would it be a good idea? 

The power costs at the time it will be mining is $0.10 ....

And lastly is it bad for the computer?

 

I am asking this stuff not for myself but so I can show a buddy this topic!

Yes, you would make roughly $6 a day if mining FTC for 12 hours. 

Yes.

At around 375w for your system running a miner at 100%, that'd $0.0375 cents per hour. 12 hours means $0.46 per 12 hour period. Leaving you with roughly $5.50.

As long as you don't push your GPU too hard, it's fine.

Yes.

Especially since you already have the card and I'm assuming computer. No overhead means pretty much pure profit other than energy expenses.

Hopefully the case is cooled well.

Yes

The amount you make really depends on what you're mining though, and to some extent, the pool you're mining in.

No, it shouldn't damage the computer, although it could decrease the life of the graphics card if not adequately cooled.

What coin and pool would you recommend?

You'd have to adjust the top to your spec.
