Default What performance numbers and 1/4 can i forsee?

I am not sure if i want to sink money into my 2002 Silverado ext. cab with the 5.3 unless it is worth it. I am curious as to what power it could make and what times it could run with the following mods i would do.
3.73 gears with a Eaton Posi
3000-3200 Stall
Decent Cam, bigget than a LS6 cam (I know that dosent help much)
Cold air intake
Pacesetter LT's with duel exhaust and cutouts
Some type of programmer
And my NX Express Nitrous Wet kit that i was going to put on my 3000GT (just a 100 shot for the truck).

So with those mods what do you think i could expect, i know it depends on the cam specs alot, which i don't have, but just a ball park. I also live in Florida so I am sea level, and I ran a 15.98 in horrible like 95 degree weather.

you will be in the 13's easily on the bottle with those mods. VERY easily with a TR220 cam and about a 2800 stall... I expect to dip into some 13's with my 125 shot... I'm on stock 3.42's, stock cam, and stock convertor... I have LT's, ORY, full exhaust, intake , tune, t-stat, a couple bolt ons and like I said, I am hoping for some solid 13's in decent weather. I have an ext cab too...

-I say go for it man... after all, this is PERFORMANCE trucks... not, "I like to get great gas mileage and go to the grocery store" trucks LOL....
