Default Iron Ls1 hoping to be in elevens?

I will be installing my Ls/t56 combo within the next month and have two questions, firstly does anyone have a similar setup? If you have anything close let me know and secondly would this engine be able to hold a decent amount of boost?
I have a Iron
5.3 bored to Ls1 specs (347)
Fresh Ls1 crank
Scat 6.100" forged i-beam rods
Mahle forged flat top -4cc pistons
Texas-speed 228R 112 LSA cam
Fresh stock 98 Ls1 heads (Ls7 lifters, and heavier springs)
K&N air filter
1-3/4" longtube Speed Engineering headers
To y-pipe to Flowmaster one chamber muffler
T-56 (Monster speed bleeder)
Monster stage 3 full clutch kit.
Mellings oil pump
Texas Speed tune
-300lbs from ac, heat, spare tire, windshield wipers and motors, etc..
Probably missing some stuff but close enough
Any suggestions/tips for performance or durability would be greatly appreciated.

assuming this will be installed in the 98 Camaro and you get reasonable racing weather yes you should be expecting 11's. Many 4th gens go top 11's with nothing but bolt ons , many cammed cars run low to mid 11's if everything is dialed in properly and good weather.

The t56 complicates guessing what it will run , the repeatability that you see with certain mods in A4 cars just isn't there , the m6's are really dependent on someone that knows how to drag race an M6 4th gen , proper slicks , suspension, rear end that can take abuse and willingness to launch the car very aggressively.

If you have your stuff together an M6 car can run real strong , if you don't it can be slower than stock

Rear gears will probably need to be 3.73 or 4.10 to get there under 12s.
