Re: What could I run with?
i had an 84' Z28 with the same engine/trans combo. i only had free mods and a dynomax catback and the car went 15.6 at 87mph
with your shift kit, and better cat-forward exhaust, id say you could hit low 15s if you get a good launch
so to answer your question, you could PROBABLY beat anything slower than mid 15s

Well I finally got out to the track and ran a 15.1, next time I plan on dropping into the 14s with some small tranny work.

Re: What could I run with?
A stall is saying that he should get a higher stall torque convertor. By getting a looser convertor, you can launch from a higher rpm and be in your power band out of the hole. That will reduce ETs quite a bit.
