Default Cam only LS2

What mph are cam only c6 LS2's doing in the 1/4 mile?
My buddy has a cam only stock geared '05 C6 LS2 6spd, with a G5X3 cam (234/238 112LSA)/LG Pro LTs, Ported LS2 manifold/ported TB and supporting mods making 462rwhp and he's claiming 11.7 @ 126mph in the 1/4. Does that mph seem a tad high for cam only? Because to me, it seems like H/C mph.

Yes it does seem high for that low of an ET but it's actually not crazy high for a manual transmissioned LS2 with a relatively big cam such as that and such strong dyno numbers.
With better traction/launch that could be a high 10 second car, if it's actually legit that is.

My Bolt on LS3 with 414 rwhp ran 11.502 @ 122.xx (heat soaked). It also trapped up to 123.4 mph.

So With 50 more hp I see low 11s and maybe a 126 trap or higher depending on how much more of a red line you've got.

when i did just my headers, vararam and tune i traped 117.4 ( i have an 06 A6) so there is more to go. i would say 125 or so for a cammed ls2 is about right in ok air on average (get a good negative DA and i would say about 128 or so).
