Default Fastest cam only full wieght car?

Just wondering what your times were, and what cam you have. I'm still up in the air about my choice in a cam. My brother had a full wieght m6 ss with a 230-230 on 110lsa, and it went 11.67@117mph, with just headers and bolt-ons, and that was through a 12-bolt with 28x10 slicks. Any help will be appreciated, just trying to get the most bang for my buck. thanks

Mines defintally not the fastest but I should be going a little faster next year. I ran a 11.79 @ 118.1 with a TSP .231/.237 cam. Race weight was around 3,490. That was without skinnies and on 27" QTP's.

I went an 11.29@118 at the first thunder shootout. This was cam only, drag radials, and at 3550 raceweight. The heads have never been off my car.

He has a Comp 224/224 .563/.563 112, I believe.

I figure my car would run 11.50s @ 115 or so in decent air full weight.
