11 second 355s stop in!

Just curious about some combos of guys running 11s with carbed Gen 1 355s. I was running 12.1xs last year just short of 111 MPH.

Last winter I did tons of work to my motor only to fall a few tenths and 4 MPH back. New parts included 2.05/1.60 AFR 195s, custom Comp solid roller and valvetrain, Annular Speed Demon 850, Wilson Manifolds 1 inch tapered spacer, yada yada.

Just curious on some track proven combos.

TIA for any replies.

Seems as if you had taken all the go fast stuff from your 355 combo from last year and installed it on a new 406 shortblock you would he been right there.
What were you running last year?

The custom cam u have now may not like the exhaust system (mismatch).
