Assuming tuned rite, slicks and a good driver..
Should run 11.75, 111 @ sea level.

hope you have a tall tire or a 4 speed. It wont even make the 1/4, my 68 cuda wouldn't with the 4.56s and a 727 trans on a 26" tire. with a 29" tire i would say mid to low 12's

IMO...... way too much cam for a 3k converter and low compression (assuming from "6-pack" pistons??). That cam's gonna want 3400 stall minimum, and will want something nearing 11:1 compression. You're also gonna need more carb for those gears. (800 or 850). No offense at all intended, but it looks somewhat mis-matched to me. My advice: Either (A) more carb & converter to match the cam & gears, or (B) less cam & gears to match the heads & carb. Depends on what you want out of it, a strip car, or a street car. Since you're not mentioning anything about the bottom end except "6-pack" pistons and the fact that we're talking about stock heads, I'm going to assume were talking about a stock-ish bottom end and a street oriented car. In that case, I'd opt for (B).
