Sounds like a good estimate. Given traction won't be an issue.

Not with that cam and those heads. I'd say real high 13's. like 13.9ish. I didn't get my firebird into the low 13's until I put in a decent cam and hooked it up with slicks, and heads are everything. If I were you, and it still an option, i would NOT go with that single pattern old style .490 lift Comp Cam. Why not go with one of their newer tech extreme energy grinds? Then you can think about low 13's

with what you've got there i'd say 13.5's to 13.8's at best. if your planning on beating mustangs you'd better keep building. mustangs are like camaro's, alot of modified mustangs out there and high 13's aren't going to scare many.
