It's going to depend on track, temperature, altitude, pressure driver skill and a bunch of other variables. Given your info - you will do like most cars her do - somewhere between hi 12's and mid 14's.
Take it to the track and find out - or get a tazzo and get a good approximation.

Mid to low 13's depending on weather, traction, and driving ability. The only real performance modifications would be the hotcam, headers, 3.73's and cold air. The hood may lighten it up a bit and the drag radials should help with traction, but otherwise it should run pretty stock.

We have a bud that just ran 13.4 with et streets a bit better than nittos but still don't think he got under 2.0 60fts.He has some mac headers,no cam,just 3.42 gears..maybe a cold air and thats about it not sure about pulleys.So I would say 12's should be very possible .Other buddy with 500hp at the engine ls1 gets 12.5 but thats on street tires.

A friend of mine ran a best of 12.75 with the hotcam kit, borla ex., M/T drags, 3:73 gear auto, CAI, Granatelli MAF, Pulleys, and other oddball mods. This was a mid 40 degree day with low altitude and he ran about 6 times. His 60' time was about 1.8 so you probably won't be any lower than his time, BUT you never know!!!
