Default How much power to break into the 11's..10s too?

Well im getting the following done on my '93...

1. Heads worked on and ported with the whole valvetrain work up of course
2. LT4 hot cam
3.California emissions legal exhaust ,lol (jba shorties ,1 high flow cat, and magnaflow catback)
4. and all the little free mods and non major mods..pulleys, tb bypass, blah blah blah
5. Major dyno tuning
6. 125 shot , wet kit

ive never been to the track but i guess ill go eventually once all this gets done, just to see what it will do all motor---then on the juice... So im wondering approx how much HP and TQ does it take to get into the 11s, and also the 10s...all things being equal in fair heat and humidity with 3.23s in a 6 speed.

I went times in my sig(all motor) and dyno'd 384rwhp/363rwtq before tuning but never got it dyno'd after I tuned. My buddy with the hotcam kit/stock heads/stock stall/nittos/3.42's went 12.93 at 107 so on a 125 shot it'd do 11's.

Although i decided to go with 3.73s cause i wont a stouter gear, but 4.10s in an m6 with a stock rear end is trouble....especially what i would do to em.....

Times in sig. I think it is making around 480 hp at the flywheel. There is probably a little more in it with better tuning. I just have not had time to tune more on the car. Oh yeah this is NA.

it doesnt matter how much power you put down if what you are putting down doesnt hook up. i have ran 12.89 with mods in my sig, no cam or headers or tb. i have seen an 95 auto with tq converter, gutted cat, 3.73's, and a 200 shot go 11.70's. it was a real cool night on both runs and the air here is pretty good at night so that helps.

Nice times, what size cam ya running?
Why do you run Unical 100 octane race fuel?
How do you like the th-400 and what difference do you have in 60fts from foot brake to t-brake?
Where did you pick up the Flaming River manual steering rack?
Ever weigh the car?
Where ya located?

I was shooting for 10's n/a with a bigger cam on stock bottem end, but I got different goals now.

I hope I answer everything.

Cam is a hyd roller. 248/254 562/580 108 lobe sep
I run the gas cause I can run a little more timing. I know I could still run pump gas though.
60' off the footbrake: best 1.49*
off the trans-brake : 1.442
It make a difference. The main reason I went to a t-brake was for more consistant reation times and 60' times.
I got the rack from my chassis shop. You can get one from anywhere. Like jeg's.
car weighs 3330 with me. I weight about 215.
I'm in IL Manteno, about 40 miles south of Chicago.
