Here is what a local guy told me when talkin to him about my set-up.
"11.18 @ 121. I pulled that off over 4 years ago. Car weighed in around 33-3400lbs. That was with the 4l60e tranny. Never got a really good pass with the weight reductions and the th 350. Best time with the weight reductions and 3 speed was 11.07 @12?. Dont get me wrong not saying it is the absolut fastest car out their but I can definately tell you it had a 10 in it. The da that day was 3800 ft. No excuses it ran what it ran. Just didnt feel like messin with it anymore pulled the motor when the tranny broke and built a new motor for it. Just havent had the time to put it all together, except for the motor anyways it has been built for over a year."
This was with a 224 cam & stock ported heads. He was puttin out like 420ish thru a 9" I believe also.

Honestly though, asking what ETs people online are getting is a WORTHLESS question.
It all depends on where you start from.
Perfect example. Look at my sig. With my mods, you have a a faster ET and same trap speed as my best run.
But, I only ran a 13.8 at 103 stock. Lid, headers, tune got me to 13.4 at 105mph. Heads/cam gained 7mph in my trap speed.
9" and gears gained about 1mph and dropped .2 off my 60'.
With cam only, expect about .3 to .5 seconds and 3-5mph.
Again, it all depends on where you start from, and of course the weather/conditions you run in. I've never run my car in weather better than high humidity and 70 degrees.

Worthless? Bit strong huh! I understand where you are saying but just wanted to see examples of people's set-ups with this cam since it was recomended to me. Guess I should have worded it differently, did'nt think my question was gonna get picked apart!

I'm expecting low 12's on street tires & mid to high 11's on sticky tires after I get my 9" built.
