trying for 12s
I am gonna be in your same boat, so-to-speak.. Except, I want to be a solid 11 second car. My 4L60E was gutted and re-done to handle the extra load ($2250). I went with an Edge Racing 3000rpm stall (with the anti balooning plates, for nitrous), my LT1 was completely rebuilt, balanced and blueprinted, bored .030 over, diamond flat tops, 3 angle valve job, ported and polished, LT4 hot cam, ditched the 48mm TB for a BBK 52mm TB matched to the intake, 1.6 roller rockers and roller lifters, Mac mid-length headers (had em ceramic coated at Performace Coating Specialties in Arlington, Texas), SLP Loudmouth exhaust, Random Technologies hi flow cat, Moroso CAI w/ a Vortech Aluminum Elbow, Cold Fusion 200 HP wet nitrous kit, and a few other misc stuff like MSD opti replacement and MSD 8.5mm wires, etc etc etc.. Since it's going to be a daily driver, I HAVE to pass the state inspection (emissions, eeek).
I am in need of someone who seriously knows how to tune an LT1, reprogram, etc. Purple95Z28 - let us know (let me know, LOL) what your gear choice is and if the additional mods worked for ya.. I am on the fence on doing anything to my rear / gearing (12 bolt GM 3.73's or 4.10/11 vs 9" Ford 3.70, 3.89 or 4.11's).

You need a real converter. At least a Yank 3600 or a Vig. 3200-3400 and a set of 3.73 gears. There's other companys that make a good converter, but I only have experience with those two. Throw in a set of headers and sticky tires and you should be very close to the ET your looking for.
