Default Theoretical what would it run nitrous question?

My car last year on the motor went 11.6 @ 117.. cam only full weight.

This year it has a new forged 347, still cam only but slightly higher compression. New motor also has an ls6 intake and an asp pulley.. which the last was missing.

Lets say in all theoretical sense that my car will pull around an 11.4-11.5 @ 119-120.

If and when I hook up a tnt 175 wet shot... around what should I be trapping / running in the 1/4th? I plan to spray at the top of first gear, launching initially off the motor. I ask this because the car has 4.11 gear... and I do not know if I will be running out of gear or not in the 1/4th. Any input is greatly appreciated.

this will depend on the transmission you are running. I have a T400 with a moser 12 bolt w/ 4.11 and cross at 6600 rpm. If you have a 6 speed your will be shiftingh in to 5th gear or be shifting into 4th on a auto. Hope this helps.
