I know that stock the 98-99 z28's ran a mid 13 second 1/4 mile, but i heard that with some bolt ons it was easy to get into the 12's, especially with good tires.

WOW you put all of those mods in one day....YOUR no longer new in my opinion lol jk Good Job tho...I say ditch the CHOKEMASTER tho as it is the worst flowing exhaust for the LS1.
Thats pretty good for your honda, is your Camaro Auto or Manual?

save some money and just put a cutout on instead of buying a new catback.

I would also get rid of the shorties and get some LT's, shorties flow almost the same as the stock ones. If you really want to see some good 12 sec times get a converter and DR's.

150 works for a lot of people. With traction I think you can break into the 12's. Should beat your other car.

so you put on the shorty headers correct? If they were long tubes then I would say you should be around where I am.

If you have an auto then you should be able to put in a 3600 stall converter and run 12.80s all day. Drag Radials and a 4200 should put you in the mid 12s. Spray a 150 shot and you're gonna get yelled at the man in the booth that you don't have a roll bar and a 5 points and rubber gloves and you didn't disinfect the handle and you're not wearing a diaper. JK, safety first!
