What E.T. to expect?

I want to know what kind of E.T.s to expect with a 560hp 540lb ft 383, T10 4-speed, and 4.10 gears assuming no tire slippage or clutch slippage in a 3600 lb Camaro. Could I expect 11-12s?

Assuming that's engine hp and not rear wheel hp and there's no tire slippage, I'd guess really low 12's and possibly a high 11.

Go to a track and find out. That's the only way you'll know for sure. 600 hp won't run 12's if you can't get the power to the ground so a guess is just a guess.

If that is rwhp then you could run 10's. If it is flywheel hp I would say 11's if you can hook.
