Default just need 2 get around mid-low 11's

i basicly been doin all suspension work cause i knew i was doin an engine swap soon,so i been getting different opions on which way i want to take it. heres what i got suspension wise....


31 spline axles, 373 gears, eaton posi, 5 lug conv..., adj. upper controll arms, lower controll arms, subframe connectors, lakewood 70/30-50/50 struts and shocks, and ford motorsport springs to just lower it a lil back 1' front 1/2' (i hate tires that rub)..


i'm just trin to get in the low 11's naturally aspirated, on a stock block.I was thinking maybe a 331 or something

with that kinda susp work. id say 350 hp to the tires would hit in the 11's if you drive good. you need at least a 1.60 60ft time. should be no problem though cause id say itll hook good.
