my 1/4 time

Wasn't sure where to really ask this but im looking for some opinions on what people would think i could run in the 1/4. My friend doesnt think i can hit low 13's so i want to see what you guys think.

On street tires, i have a new 350 rated at 375hp on the motor so im guessing with exhaust (gonna be doin true dual), auto trans and what not maybe i'll put down 300 to the wheels. I have 3.73 gears with a posi rear, 28 spline axles, 700r4 trans, b&m ratchet shifter, 2500 stall... dont know if im forgettin anything but my buddy doesnt think im capable of low 13's with those specs. What do you think?

I think your easily in the low 13's. LS1's are rated for 320 hp and they're supposed to be running mid 13's. So I would guess that 375 hp would be a bit better.
