Having the stock dual catted y-pipe along with the shorties are definitely a buzz kill to your setup. Hard to say what the heads are worth since we don't truly know the quality of the job. Is the car automatic or manual?

If the car is auto and you mentioned stock trans so I assume stock converter, I would say the car is somewhere in the lower portion of 13's considering the exhaust system, lack of a stall and weight of a convertible. If manual about the same. With some LT's, ORY and a converter you would be into the mid 12's pretty easily I would imagine.

Nice car btw, I've always loved that color on Z28's, buddy of mine use to have one similar to yours.

Thanks! I have a A4 with stock TC. And plan to get a mild 2800-3000 stall. I am going to do the LT's and ORY but not sure which one.

i said around 300 because of his shorties/A4 setup. I was making 256/296 with a WS6 intake, 1.6s, shorties and a catback. A hotcam and "ported heads" adding 40 on top of that is realistic. OP if you add LTs somewhere around 340 or so

My buddy's 6 speed car made 348rwhp with stock heads, LTs and the Hotcam. With your car being a A4, having shorties, but having ported heads. I see no reason why your car doesn't top 330rwhp atleast. In all honesty, I'd guess 340-350.
