You should see some 11.80s -11.70s. I have basically the same mods as you except I still have the stock 3.23 gears, and no weight reduction. My best time has been 11.74.

cool guys, im stuck with a 98 but ill make the best of it, my current exhaust is holding me back (hacked 3" y pipe with a dumped flowmaster, so ill be switching to straight pipes of some sort, 3" AC will be out, all emissions, anything else in the engine bay, back seats, most of the exhaust, and ill get skinnies for the track.

A 224 Cam would drive better and you'll hit 11.5's. Done a few 98's at full weight,close stall and gears run 11.5-11.7 depending on track conditions.
