Will I see 14s?

Ok heres the full run down

1984 Camaro sport coupe with a 1980 350 LM1. Stock rated at 190 HP, 280 torque. Rebuilt 23k ago with stock replacement parts.

heres whats been done

AC delete
smog delete
edelbrock performer RPM intake
holley 600 cfm carb
vacuum advance curve kit
hedman full length headers (1 5/8th tubes, 3 inch collector)
th350
3.42s in back

Only accessory its running is the alternator. Not even power steering (for the time being)

Is it possible to see a very high 14 out of this setup?

Maybe a14.99 if you're lucky...most likely low low 15's. You might bust a very high 14 if you have a stall convertor.

I should have some decent 255s on back when I take it to the track. And i'll definitely be practicing my launch
