it should run that stock, you really need an exhaust and headers with a tune to make use of that cam, i'm going to say mid/low 13's

I would think mid to low 13's wouldnt be unreasonable. But as said there are a few things holding you back.

Depends on where you are geographically located as well as track/weather conditions. A former member of this board (LeathernecK) ran mid to low 12's @ 108mph w/ hotcam in a '97 at a sealevel track and good air. However that was with a Vig 2800 stall, 3.73 gears and DR's. W/out those three things your times are more than likely going to suffer.

His car is stock, untuned, stock stall, and has a hotcam, so it won't me much faster than stock if any.

I don't believe anyone has the ability to guarantee ET or trap speeds regardless of what mod list is posted.

Don't be a sissy. It's not that hot yet. So if it's too hot are you going to wait until fall before you go to the track?

I guess mid-high 80's and 100% humidity doesn't count as hot?
