Hello! I have a 1996 camaro z28 with moroso cai and a cutout. I ordered: long tubes, intake elbow, getting zo6 rims/nitto 555 tires, and a lt4 hot cam kit, vig 2200 stall.
Now I know people hate on the hotcam kit, but I want a dd that's fast on the track, too.
My question is... What should I run/how much power am I getting to the ground?
Thanks!!

Iam going to go with my trans shop recomends for now...they say they can take a 2000 s-10 converter and rework it and get 2500 to 2600 rpm. That would be cheap for me and should work good on a stock bolt on car, i have a really hard time cutting a good light even leaving at 1400 the brakes will not hold any more than that.

A 12" converter like the S-10 stalled to 2500-2600 rpm by a "trans shop" will generate more heat and drive like crap compared to a Yank SS3600 and will severely underperform as well.
I agree you should get 330 rwhp with the Hotcam, and with a good 9.5 or 10" converter and modest traction (ie. DR's) easily be in the 12's.

I wouldnt even consider doing the s10 converter.

There are several companys that make a budget 9.5" converter that would be better then doing that. I would consider fishing around. You dont need one with the billet cover or ANTI balloon plate. I would consider the plate if you decide to use nitrous. There is a company called Precision from New Hamption, IA that Ive seen their budget converter pull some decent 60ft times for a nice price tag.
