I assume it does, but does it have longtubes? Wasn't in the list, but I would think it would with all the other mods. I would go with a bigger cam! That's always fun =)

Aren't you in the 11's already?...or low 12's, i guess..
Maybe some heads to go along with that cam...and long tubes unless you already have them...Good Luck!

If you don't have long tube headers, that's a must. That's a small cam, but if you're spraying it should be good! Guy i know ran low 11's car definately had high 10's in it with that cam, heads and a 150 shot! Just a glimmer of hope for you if you decide to keep that cam!

Like the other guys said you need LT headers if you don't have them all ready. The mods you have (assuming LT's and a decent A/F ratio are in place) should be good for 11.9 with traction. Spray a 150 shot and say hello to high 10's.
As for good mods for you to do next I say finish the bolt ons.
Fast 90/90 combo would be a great investment. But at $1200 and change it's not for everyone. If that is too much to spend then at least go with a LS6 intake manifold and port your stock throttle body. Then an underdrive pulley would be a good and reasonably priced mod.
After that I would consider some heads. ETP 215's would be my first choice but they are pricey. A good bang for the buck would be PRC's from Texas Speed & Performance. If you go this route eventually then that would also be a good time to put in a bigger cam if you were so inclined. I like the TSP 231/237 or 233/239 with a 114 LSA. For an auto car on spray you would be very happy with either of those cams.
Good luck.
