Default What am I lacking to be here?

I just want to see if I am incredibly far off the mark here:

1998 WS6 Vert
A4 / TCI SSF 3500 Stall
3.23 gears
PRC 2.5r heads
230/234 cam
ported FAST 90/90
FLP coated long tube headers
Pulley
150 shot of spray *coming soon*

Am I dreaming? I would think it should be around 570ish rwhp with the above done. How close should I get to 9's with this?

I am not at all an LS1 expert since all of my stuff has been LT1 based but here's the problems I see...

car is a convertible IE heavy as ****..... nothing you can do about that...
you need way more gear 3.23's are highway gears.
that cam is okay but i'd think you'd want something bigger
with sticky tires i think you could also use more stall....

and yeah 570 RWHP in a full weight street car not to mention a convertible is going to net you like 10.7's with those gears......
