By all accounts, you are making well more than 420WHP to run those times... If you are indeed heavier than 3000lbs, then it is more than likely around 460whp. A friend of mine ran 10.7 in his basic weight fiero (never weighed it, but it was a typical 86gt with a automatic L67 swap), put down 465 on a mustang dyno, with more mods than you had listed for dons car and a 175 shot of nitrous.
The "magic tricks" that are in there apparently are hiding during dyno runs, and visual inspection as well.... I am not flaming or anything, I am just the guy that likes to find the smoke and mirrors behind any claimed magic show.

I don't know for sure what injectors are in there, but will try and look them up here..
Don was trapping up to 118 mph, but trapped 116 in his 11.323 run..
How does the math work out with Dons 320 rwhp and 11.3 sec 1/4 mile time and his highest traps of 118mph? I am just curious..
Don's words himself here.. Maybe he is hiding something..
""""" If you tune it on a dyno for max horsepower that car will run the tens with the equipment its got.No other 3800SC with the M90 supercharger and no other power aids comes close to that car.
Don """"""

It was a 10 second car when Don owned it, but he never fixed the fuel problem and got back to the track.. Don stated his trap speeds were low due to running out of fuel in the top end..
If he didn't have fuel problems he would have easily hit 10's..
I dare anyone here to show me a picture of their Fiero doing this.. Anybody?

Well it is final...DH has spoken and there is no way that what you have done could have happened. I mean he is the KING of the 3800 so what you say is a lie and made up.....Of course I am just kidding as everyone knows DH likes to pull shiz from his azz all the time. It is always nice to know that he has a friend that has done this and that....

The power numbers you found on the dyno, are VERY typical numbers for that setup. I am just saying that the times are VERY far from typical on that horsepower.
I have a good feeling that there are no tricks that are giving extra horsepower. The trans probably doesnt have any tricks in it either, other than possibly a locked converter? The GMR diff doesnt do anything to help...
To get those 1/4 numbers in my car, justins car, and a handful of my friends cars in the high 10s, it took at least middle 400whp, at less weight than your car.
My GTP put down a bit under 200whp more than you at 515 on a mustang dyno, and in a 3600lb car I struggled to run mid 11's at 123mph. (there, not my friends car!)

Anyone care to crunch some numbers?
MPH = 234 (hp/weight).333 and ET = 5.825 (weight/hp).333 (It's actually raised to the 1/3 power but I can't get superscript to work. That is the same of course as the cubed root.)
Solving for a 3000 lb car and 320 HP = 12.282 ET @ 111.057 MPH
Please check my math I have been known to make mistakes.
