High 13's to mid 13's with good traction assuming everything is up to par. Camshaft is too small. What kind of compression do you have?

I got 10:5 in compression.
I choosed that cam because of the fuel consumption, here in Sweden we pay 4 dollars/gallon...
What do you think of 228/234 050" 480/494?

Other suggestions?

Sounds closer to what I would be looking for with those kind of flow #'s and that much compression. The COMP extreme energy 274 is a kickass cam for the money, (230/236, .487/.490). I would definately look into a bigger camshaft, DTD2K3 (take it with a grain of salt) says itd bump you almost 40 horsepower.
