well my LT1 went 13.32 with a cat-back and DRs so probably not much if his car runs good.

depending on what was actually done to the Lt1, possibly N20 that may put him in the 12.6 range and i doubt seriously you will run 11.9 on the street so with a situation he should have the upper hand unless you were on tire and traction was gooood. no tellin unless you both have a pass at the track.
**side note**
not all Lt1s are easy pickens
