Your LS1 will do. Plenty of good examples of how to get there. Just go to the 10 second club because everybody there is running those times or better.

Get a good rear end first. The stock 10b doesn't take well to drag launches with stickies.

LCA's, lose some weight on the car, power adder, tires, light weight wheels... Practice practice practice.
