Even if you set up a race before hand, more than likely you won't get the full story from the other guy, regardless of how much you try to squeeze him for info. Some people like to exaggerate what their car can do and some will downplay it. It's part of the fun of street racing.
From what I've seen if a guy says his car runs mid 13s, expect it to be closer to 12s. Guy says that he's stock, well he probably has just about every bolt-on that can be thrown at the car. A big one that no one ever mentions is weight reduction.

LOL yeah, I can picture 25th at a red stoplight right now:
"Hey, nice mustang. Wanna run?"
"Depends, what heads ya got?"
"Uhh....edelbrocks?"
"Hmmmm.....what cam?"
"Well, it's a flat tappet around .550 lift..."
"What's your timing set at?"
Meanwhile, the light's turned green, and people are honking behind them....

He opened his hood, to let the OP see under there. You think he planned to "hide" what heads he has? Unless he went through a lot to hide it with the hood up? Almost all aftermarket head manufacturers have a logo right on the front of them, carved into the aluminum.
Maybe I am asking too much, and maybe the OP doesn't care what heads the car has. If thats the case, no worries. I personally try and find this info out when I race someone that I am interested in beating!
Carry on.

That's an underhood shot of my 89' LX coupe BTW.

Thanks, it's something I aquired recently. It's a very clean car, and a real 5.0L car - not a converted 4 cyl car. I have too many cars/projects though, but now is just the wrong time to sell anything. I had the car for sale recently, lots of tire kickers - no one with the cash.
