Right now I'm going to have to agree with majority and say high 13's. But if you get dr(I'd go with m/t, bfg, anything but 555r's) I'd say a 13.4@104.5

It's not good on the clutch and tranny, but you'll cut better times if it's done right.

Mid to high 13's when you get the feel for the car.

CTGreddy has a good estimate.

I've managed 13.9's without the 4.10s or DR's. I didn't have a tune at the time, and the u/d pulleys don't do much, so about what you have without gears. If you can get a half decent launch I would think maybe 13.7's are possible. With the 4.10s and crappy Nitto DR's I've run a 13.5, so with a better tire I think the 13.4 estimate would be good for you with a set of M/T's. You get some better suspension and I can see low 13's, that's what I'm hoping for when atco opens back up.

depends on how well u drive, the track prep, the elevation, your launch is key and you are on street tires... I say 14.2-14.6 with your tires and being new to the car
