I think with the all the little boltons, and bogarts with 28in tire instead of 30 at a sea level track mine would of been in the 11.6-11.7 range. loose conveter is the trick, the ls1 lacks some mid range torque from its bigger 6.0 brother so if the 4500 is dailed in right you should have your number no problem.

that build should run very well, a few things in your favor, you removed roughly 94 lbs off the nose, its aluminum , it dispurses heat alot better, read the plugs increase the timing, i see better part of 11s the best part of it is the 4500 stall, get the foot brake to get close to flash and you should see some nice 1.50's either way good luck its a nice build and should be fun to drive!!

Word. Im thinking 430 or 456 gears should match the converter nicely.
I should have it running this week and just waiting for the track to open back up!

lol Fuddle is a name I haven't heard in 3 years! That makes me feel better about my 3600. I had a few people telling me the SS3600 wasn't loose enough for 11's N/A.

The ss3600 was probably my favorite converter for both street/strip... the ss4k was great at the track but not so street friendly... especially with 3.42s
Stew will have to verify but iirc his fuddle may have even been specd to a 3200
