Default Z06 cam question

I have a 98 camaro that some one was building to make a turbo car. They put rod bolts, 317 heads with arp head bolts, a 03 Z06 cam, LS6 intake, Hooker long tubes, ORY, and a flowmaster muffler. There is a lid, and K&N filter with a descreend maf and ported TB.

My question is, how much power do you think I am making at the wheels through a 3k stalled 4L60 and a 10 bolt with 3.73's?

Reason I ask is that I raced a buddy the other day in a 12.4 proven RX7 from a 50 roll and were neck and neck until I lost #7 injector wire.

I'm running it on 87 octane since the heads yield 9.65:1 CR. I really don't wish to race this car so much but playing around from a roll is fine. Just wanted to be able to classify the car as a 12.xx, 13.xx, 14.xx what ever car.

i think you answered your question in terms of an estimated ET, chances are your car would get off the line better than the Rx7. Hp wise, 350-375ish.

There is more to the race story. He started in on the ricer excuses about his tune being rich this week, missing 3rd, having a passenger. All I did was loose a cylinder middle of 3rd.

Really not a big deal, just seeing if anyone had a similar set up with solid numbers to compare with.
