14 seconds flat. If you can really row that box, it may drop into 13's somehow, sometime.

Low 14s, high 13 seems about right. If you want to pick up some cheap speed, add headers or a stouter* cam. You'll have to be careful with the cam though - if you go with too high of a lift you'll need to replace valve springs and could have valve-to-piston clearance issues.
Good luck.
