I would say you're up close to 500 horsepower, maybe 475 and would imagine you should be able to run in the 11's with traction.

I had a friend that had a similar setup:

383, 10:1 compression, XE284 cam, ported Edelbrock heads and he went 11.6's at 118 mph in a 3000 pound truck.

Re: what et's can i expect
Why do u recomend a 5000 rpm stall for an engine that will only be shifterd at about 6200 rpms. Which is already pushing the limits of my ext balanced stock crank and a 2 bolt main block. 10s would be nice which would equate to low 6s in the 1/8th but i also belive that wold be a bit optimistic how well i can get my 10 bolt to hook up.

10 bolt + 412 =

I doubt you will get one clean pass with a good hookup without having guts of it scattered. It will prob last a little bit since you wont hook with those tires.

With those tires I would think you will be in the high twelves.
