Race weight? Tire size?
If you really want to know what it will run, you need to go to the track and make a pass. Computer dynos will assume everything is set up perfectly which it never is.

What's your cam specs and stall speed? If you've never ran at the track, you have no idea if you will hook up or not. Have you scaled your car to see the front to rear weight distribution?

You should be able to make some 9 sec passes on the spray but it looks like you will have to much gear to me on spray on motor you will be some where in the 10s

I have a friend with a 6" rod 383 with 12:1, Brodix Track 1's and a big solid roller (too big actually imo) and he runs in the 10.9's with a small 3000 converter.

4.10 with a 28 to a 29 in tall tire on the spray you will want the extra top end. I run a 3.89 gear my car ran 9.70s on a 275 shot.
