Back from the track, LE times: 11.37 @ 118.9 in an automatic ;)
Here's an example of what can be done when setup right and when you don't launch like a ***** (no offense to those who don't wanna break their ****.. just sayin' 
)
And I still have room for improvement btw...
This is my *first* pass on my 355, LE2 heads, and LE3 cam.
11.370 @ 118.90 1.579 60' (1/8 7.222 @ 94.49)
I backed that up with a 11.398 @ 118.65 varying my launch some.
Best time was run with off idle launches ~ 1300 RPM brake stall. Car ran smooth as silk, should have videos tomorrow I imagine. Last pass on the night I meatspun the 60' to a 1.8x let off, and still trapped 118.3.
So, I'm still on a mail order tune (good ****in' job pcmforless!), fouled plugs, stock throttle body, and pretty much stock suspension.
Thank you Lloyd for kick *** heads, Bret for a kickass, extremely driveable cam, Frank @ CPT for a BADASS 4L60E, and Yank for building a REAL converter for these cars.
I think the car will go 10's once I tweak it out and in better weather. Tonight was "ok" but it was raining on and off. Track had to be dried twice tonight.

Sounds great for a shakedown night, I agree with tweeking you should be in the 10's...
BTW, what tires are you running? You should be able to a better 60', but that will come too with the tweeking...

I agree I can probably 60' better, I'm still experimenting with the launch. Only got 3 passes in due to the rain.
I'm running 275/50/15 M/T ET Street drag radials. I ran 22psi my first pass, 20psi my second pass.
Keep in mind I have stock suspension, including a stock torque arm and no relocation brackets on the LCA's.
