Default RECIPE FOR 10s???

What do you guys think about this combo? Good for some high 10s?? Car is my 98 Z28 A4

Direct Flo lid, FTRA, throttle body, LS6 intake, long tube headers, off road y pipe, catback, cutout, 2002 LS6 cam package(shift points raised to 6200rpm) Yank SS3600 torque converter, 3.73 gears, slicks, skinnies up front, weight reduction, and a TNT 100 shot kit.

Think this will do it or will I have to go with a more aggressive cam,if possible, id LOVE to hit 10s on stock heads.

I don't think that'll get you high 10s... up the shot to a 200 and probably

The LS6 cam should be shifted at 6600-6800 with a manual. With an automatic? I would think the same.

Go a 150 wet shot. With traction, if you can run 11.99999 on motor, the 150 shot will get you into the 10's.

I also think this would be possible on that setup. I know the redline on the Z06 vettes is 6500. But all the stats Ive seen on the cam list it as making power to 6200rpm. So thats why I said shifts would be set at 6200. Also, I believe I could hit 11s on motor. And with a TNT 100 shot kit, i should see at least 100+ hp extra at the wheels, with a good launch I think its possible. That would be quite a claim, 10s on stock heads and a fairly mild cam, would be a VERY streetable car, which is exactly what I want.

y2kblackbird....you run 10.6@124mph on a TNT 150 and stock internal??? stock heads and cam? Thats amazing if thats true. Id be interested to know what converter and stall speed youve got in that beast. Also ill be running a LS6 cam so that should give me some more oomph too.
