Default This combo good enough for 11's?

Well I have a 2002 extended cab short box silverado and am really hoping to bust into high 11s. Just want to know how hard it will be with my combo. Mods
6.0 , isky 212 cam.
Kb turbo kit with magnum t76 .96 ar 3.5 down pipe.
No meth yet on 93 octane. Gonna run 10-11# spring.

4l80e/ stock converter, 4.10s for now but will be swapping to 3.73 or 3.42 before to long.
I have a nitrous plate kit on it for use out of the hole with about a 75 shot till about 6-7 psi if needed.
I have caltracs and hoosier 28in slicks also. What yall think?

If you can get traction, and the tune is perfect, you can get there I think.

You need a converter bad!!! Nitrous will help but you will have shitty 60 ft. times and that doesn't make a good foundation for a strong 1/4.

Without you have a chance, with you should be there with out a problem.

Spray a 150 out of the hole and cut it off earlier to make up for that stock converter.

I bet with practice launching you will get what you are asking for.

I like 12 psi myself, feels so much stronger than 10psi.

Brake stalling works best for me.
