Times for this setup, with a good driver? I'm getting really close to finishing my project, after 2 1/2 years in the making, and would like to get some idea's from you guys as to what you think it'll be like.
1995 Firebird Formula
Engine - 396 LT4
LT4 ported intake matched to heads
AFR 227cc LT4 heads with 76cc chambers, running 11.2:1
Comp cams custom grind, .254 .266 @.050 and .622 .638 112 LSA
Ross forged pistons, and forged 6" rods
Callies Racemaster forged crank
LT1 block, bored 30 over, clearanced for 3.875 crank, making 396 roughly
splayed 4-bolt mains
Bosch 42# injectors
AS&M Monoblade throttle body
Jesel comp series shaft mounted rocker system, with tie-bar lifters
Exhaust -
Jet Hot ceramic coated headers, with off road y-pipe
No cats
QTP electronic cutout
Corsa Catback with premium pro series tips
Tranny - T-56
Rebuilt with performance upgrade rebuilt kit
-with new blocker rings, billet keys, 3-4 steel shift fork, etc.
Custom aluminum driveshaft good to ~1200hp
Rearend -
Moser 9 inch rear, 3.75 ratio
strange aluminum case
33 spline axles
detroit true trac
Suspension -
UMI torque arm, with cross brace, and driveshaft safety loop

I might have missed a few things, but that gives a general idea of the setup. What do you guys think of it?

There are still quite a few things I need to get for it. If I can get it running good, and don't put the time down that I want, i'll be throwing on some nitrous as extra fun. Don't know what i'll go though for how much though if I do.

I've got some learning to do in order to drive something like that, but I think I could make some decent times out of it. I am at 5800ft above sea level though, so i'd be happy with 11's. If I managed 10's up here, then i'd literally **** my pants when looking at the timeslip.

Should be mid 10's if you can drive it...
