With some 1.5 60's its possible. Drive the hell out of it I guess.
Mines is well in the 11's (forgive me for using/converting 1/8 mile times, that all I have) and I'm a full weight street car in 100% street trim(except for crappy D/R's on 17's) But I do have an extra 70rwhp to help "band-aid" my weight, IRS, lack of tires,crappy launches, etc............ lol
With 400rwhp you are looking at a ~150 wet shot (will prolly get you more than 400) and probably somewhere in the 450-500 ft/lbs area AT THE REAR WHEELS. That's gonna be tough on the block I would believe.

Maybe some SFC's. But with those short times, you are getting into having rear end problems. i.e. ASSPLODING AXLES!

RE: 2v in the 11s?
He's talking about the Front sway bar. It let's the car torque. The drivers side front tire will want to pick up first b/c thats how the motor torques. The sway bar keeps the front A arms together, and doesnt let if come up like it should.
I took mine off for a race, THEN I LOST IT! lol I drive around everyday without it. Interstate, backroads, everywhere. It's really not that bad.
