Default What should it be?

i run 1/8 mile but 1/4 guess are fine...or Hp guesses, had not been on a dyno yet

99 T/A with zero weight reduction other than no front swaybar
347ci ls1 out of 02 camaro
afr225's @59cc
236/242 .615/.615 111 LSA Raptr cam
1-3/4 headers w/ cutout
UD pulley
36# injectors w/ fuelpump
LS6 intake and stock TB
edge 5000 converter, shift kit, etc...but not built just freshened up, trans-go w/ cooler
3.42 rear 10bolt w/ nitto drag radials 12" wide (i think this is most of my problem) 17" TT2's
LCA's, Subframes and i guess that's about it


ide like to know what i should run because my best is 7.70 @ 91.25mph w/1.70 60' that lifted the front left about an inch! haha so the spectators say anyways.

transmission maybe? cant hold it? stealing too much?
i asked Mamo a while back and he said 1-7/8" headers and a Fast setup need to be in my future after a rear-end. but still there are others cars, hell cam only, running 7.3's. I'm just hoping i didn't mismatch somewhere and this combo just doesn't work well together.
