What about this setup

I just traded my 96 3.8 liter for this 1984 Camaro z28 here are the mods

engine details 350 .30 over 480 lift comp cam/edelbrock headers/edelbrock 750 carb/edelbrock performer rmp intake/heads ported decked 3 angle valve job/ non computer controlled/mechanical and vacuum advance/edelbrock chrome open element air cleaner

700r4/corvette servo

373 gears/powertrax locker/lakewood lower control arms and lifter bars/panhard bar/polygraphite bushings/complete front suspension rebuild/bfg comp ta kdws tires

I was told this car ran mid 12s with slicks and has somewhere near 350-400 horsepower im just wondering if you guys think thats possible for these mods. The car hauls *** i havent gotten it out on the track yet though.

Not real for sure, but if i had to guess I would say around 300 to 350, but yeah mid to high 12's with slicks sounds about right, i bet that thing is a beast compared to what you had.

I could maybe see that running high 12s with slicks. What are you running for a torque converter? Stock stall?

How much do the older third gens weigh?

Im not sure what the stall speed is at or if its just a stock converter as for weight i think stock there about 3150lbs somewhere around there i think mines somewhere near 3300lbs so i was told. And yea its an absolute beast compared to anything ive drivin before
