sounds like low 11s if you can all get it matched with the rest of the drivetrain.

Everything looks good other than the cam. Needs to be a little bigger and a 106lsa will make more power if that is your goal.

It'll run rather well. As long as you let AI design the cam, let them match all your parts together. They know what they're doing

Didn't tell us what you're using the car for...if you're driving it on the street, the 108 LSA is as narrow as I'd go...

Baby cam for a 383, but it can still go well into the 11s if everything is set up right .

Go bigger on the cam.

Besides that I think it sounds like a formidable build

My car made 450 on a dynojet through a 6 speed with a similar setup. 11.67@121 w/ 1.85 60'. My cam was a touch bigger but, had the same LSA. I was having computer problems though. Car was running lean, would have made more.
