Default Stock cubed A4 C5s, N/a, stock cubes, heads/cam, big stall and gears how close to 10s

I have my eye on a C5 that is making some nice power with aggressive cam and heads and 3.42 gears.

I am thinking of making this car into a ballsy daily driver that would see weekend duty at the dragstrip. Back 6 years ago I was running mid 11s with my 98 A4 C5 Roadster, stock cubes, with 3.73 gears, Yank Prothruster 4000 converter and only about 370rwhp. This car is making 50rwhp more than my old car and my goal is to get it as close to the 10s natually aspirated on stock cubes as possible.

Anyone N/Aaspirated only (no N20 or forced/indcution) running 10s with ballsy stock cubed heads cam package, big converter and gears and how close are you guys running these days to a 10.9X time slip and what set-up (gears and converters you running).

Still planning on keeping my blown Z but missing my old point and shoot n/a automatic that can be flogged at the dragstrip in point and shoot style!

I am using a ECS custom cam, Trick Flow Heads, Fast 90 intake, 3:90 gears, 4,000 stall converter, RPM trans (auto), American Racing Headers (1 7/8) w/ X-pipe and I have gone the best of 10.78 @124mph. I still have not a full good pass with the new combo. Saturday I went 10.79 tapping the brakes and with a throttle stop in the car. The car is a 98 Pace car and it weighs 3640 with me in it. As a daily driver, it is great.
