I have a 318 in my car. Times in my signature.

I think with more gear( run street friendly 4.10) a single plane intake ( knockoff dual plane currently), roller cam( currently a 231@50 hydraulic in it) more compression(10.5) good set of headers(99 dollar cheapies on it)
And removing the power steering, factory water pump and fan, what I have with those mods would go at least 11.20's without much of a sweat.
The heads are ported magnum RT units. Edelbrock magnums ported would I am sure make more power and save some weight.
I can see getting in the 10's pretty easily with the right parts. I am shifting at 6200 and trapping at 5900, not optimal.
This all said, this motor was built and screwed together with excellent machining and thought, that is definitely worth something.
