How much slower are full bolt on verts than coupes and what should i expect a full bolt on stalled vert to run on slicks.

I don't think there is much difference in vert and coupe. Are you auto or manual?

Those mods in your sig, 4.11 gears, a stall (what size?) and slicks (What size)? Assuming nothing in the driveline breaks, i'd think a 12.5 is probable. Maybe a smidge lower if you can drive, if you had headers, i'd say maybe 12.2 Definitely not a slouch.
