My old Z28 had the F13 and a small 3K converter. Only other mods were lid, pacesetters, TSP duals and LCAs. It put down 381 RWHP on motor. Best N/A pass was a 7.42 @ 93 and see my sig for the first N2O pass. The car could have been quicker if it was tuned for nitrous but it wasn't (the reason why I mushroomed two valves). IMO if the car was tuned right then it would have gone 6.5Xs or 6.6Xs

it will take a fairly big cam to make a solid 400 + rw through that auto. i'd say something like a t3 or so might get you there.

Unless you're spraying a 200 shot or larger, I wouldn't pick the cam based on the nitrous. Pick it for NA use, just pick something with a traditional split, like the 230/236 mentioned earlier or the MS, torquer etc.
