Default Heads and cam are going on this weekend

My dads 02 Camaro Z28 is going to Mikey at Rapid Motorsports tomorrow for a head and cam install. Car has run a best of 12.68@107.42 with only SLP LT's with cats, Slp lid, Phonix 3500 stall, 17" Torque thrust II's w/ nittos, Borla cat back , metco control arms, bmr panhard rod and hypertech PP
Parts being installed:
Patriot LS6/LQ9 59cc Stage II heads !!(WHICH HEAD GASKETS SHOULD BE USED TO OBTAIN 11.2:1 CR?)!!
Comp cams XE-R 226/.584/114 single pattern cam
Harland Sharp 1.7 roller rocker arms
Rollmaster double timing chain
85mm Z06 mass air sensor
Accufab 75mm throttle body
Asp underdrive pulley
Taylor 10.4 mm wires
Katech tensioner
Slp torque arm
Richmond 3.73 gears
Mikey's dyno tuning
since the last time at track we cut open the airbox and installed a Trans Go shift kit.

What does everyone think it will make on the Dyno and any estimates on 1/4 mile times and trap speeds with this combo. Car is a full weight every option car.
We are hoping for 400rwhp locked and 11.4's @120 on the drag radials
Let me know what you goes think
thanks

The results are in 403rwhp and 378rwtq w/ tge converter locked. What do you guys think. The torqur #'s are not locked just the HP #'s. The air/fuel ratio is around 12.8:1 across with 28 degrees of timg.

My first thought is I'd of used GM gears instead of Richmond. Whiney a$$ things. Good numbers for that size cam.
