Assuming you can get it to hook up (what tires are you using?), I'll guess 10.0 at 132.

I hope that you have either a solid axle or a Tom's 12-bolt I.R.S. in the rear.. Otherwise, you'll be heareing a boom when your rear end will blow up. With 737 flywheel HP and stock weight, you will very likely run in the low to mid 10's (if you can hook up - suspension is critical). On the spray, you could get into mid 9's (with the 225 shot). If you reduced the cars weight, even 8's seem possible but with stock weight, you won't get into 8's.. Well, maybe with the 400 shot but it would be close with stock weight.
