will the 224/230 get me into the 12's?

Hey guys i plan on putting in a 224/230 xe cam and 1.6 roller rockers. Right now i have a 1995 formula 6 speed with shortie headers, 3" catback, 3.73's, ram air. right now i run 13.4 at almost 106 mph with a 2.0-2.1 60 foot time. will adding the cam and rockers get me into the 12's? if so what do you guys think i have a chance of running?

thanks
Tom

I think so. The hotcam kit got me from a 13.35 to a 12.85 and that cam is "bigger" than the hotcam. Im not sure though, hopefully someone with that cam could help you out.

Put a tire on there and get your 60 down a couple tenths and you'll be able to do high high 12s right now. That cam should easily put you in the 12s
