Low 13's, high 12's is my guess. Try the motor swap board. They would know for sure since they have probably done a swap similar to yours and would be able to tell you. But that is my guess.

It all depends on the heads, you could run as slow as mid 14's with some 882 with stock valves. Or as fast as 12's with some TFS, AFR, IRon eagles, etc. It's all in the heads. And the compression is a little high especially with a carb if you plan on running pump gas. Try 9.5to 1 with iron heads or 10to 1 with aluminum on 92octane. And a bigger carb, this car will not be as reliable or drivable compared to you stock engine also. Upgrade your radiator and water pump, don't run UD pulleys.
