A coule things did you make sure those headers are 1 3/4" instead of 1 1/2"?
I say slicks and your in 11's, then kiss that rear end bye bye

i dont really know what size they are, i bought them from someone on this forum, used. i dont have them here beside me to check. i was guessing on the smaller side because the bigger can only make the car have more horsepower and go faster so i wont be disappointed.

1 1/2 is probably gonna hurt you.
with a sticky tire you should be in the 11's. Sticky tires love that 10 bolt BTW.
Just curious.... Is that south lyon Michigan?

A guess at best, but those mods (minus the cam ) look like an additional 80-90 fwhp +/- depending on tune. +1 about 11s! Good luck with your build.

the site claims 50+ horsepower from the cam alone. i figured that was over what it would actually do, but would that mean i might get into the solid 11s not just high 11s.

that figure is with all the supporting mods-not with tiny headers. You could get solid 11's but rear-end WILL go BOOM.
