Be VERY careful doing that, too many variables in the tune on a 200 to risk that IMO.

I never dynoed it or tuned it in on the 200 but I did go 10.20@134 with a 1.59 60 ft (too rich out of the hole) and the same raceweight. The combo def had a 9.9@134-135 on the 200 hit so I think your goals are reasonable but you will need the chassis setup perfect and I don't think the 4L60e will be able to take too many of those 10.0 passes.
The tranny is a proformabuilt lvl2. He says it will stand up to 700rwph. He gave me a 2 year warranty. Im hoping to
make around 550rwhp but i may wishing to much.

i dont see a problem with it making a little over 400plus na and 550 on 150 shot. but i dont see 10.0s. i say its gonna take 200 shot minimum buddy. but it depends and weight hooking power and where your power comes in at. i predict 11.3 on motor though

you need the hp but it more in the car than anything. Got to have a good combination to do that. I was bracket racing with 100 shot.....was easy for me b/c I could finish line race but I was 1.33 60' and 6.28 1/8 You have to have your car set up right. Thats more key than anything getting as much usable hp to the ground as possible.

If your going to use nitrous there are alot of ways to manipulate the power and tq with that too to make it useable and get every last drop

10.0's are easy to do on paper.....not so easy at the track. you should be in the 10's but i would guess high or maybe mid tens on a 150. i have a similar set up going together with a forged 383 (slightly smaller cam than you) @ 3100 race weight and i set my goal at 10.50's on a 150. good luck.

For comparisons sake.....

My old motor.... 355, 6" rod.... 11.75:1 compression...... made 422RWHP NA and 575 RWHP on a 150 shot.....

Raceweight 3540 lbs....

Went 10.40@131 on a 150 shot... had zero suspension work up front and some shitty shocks out back and a broken swaybar.. Car left the line like three wheel motion out of a Latino lowrider rap video...

So heavier car, same motor kinda, and you have a better suspension and a lighter overall vehicle. I predict 10.30@133

Do a 200-225 shot and you'll run 10.0

I hope faster then high 10s. Im running 11.2s on a bolton motor with a 1.61 60ft and low bottle pressure. Car has been 1.54 60ft b4. But I do agree thats its alot easier on paper. I can say it should all day but that dont mean it will. lol

Id be happy with a 10.3 thats for sure. Im gona try and get it as light as possible and still look decent inside.
