This combo is very much like mine, except your cam has a lot more duration. My car ran 13.35 on a 95-degree day with a cam that only has 214/218 degrees at .050" lift, BUT it has .525" lift, and I have Magnum heads, so I'd say the breathing might be pretty close, overall, since it's a roller tappet cam with more lift and marginally better heads. My stall speed is 2,500, too, but I think you might need a little more, with all that duration.
But, my car weighs 3,340 without me in it, and yours is gonna be lighter, with the work you've done, so it might run closer to a 13-flat.
I live in central Arkansas and sometimes race at the drag strip at Salisaw; do you live anywhere near there?
We should get together sometime for a "match race:"... As close as our two cars are, it could be fun!!!

Let me know when you might be there, or come on down to the strip at Centerville; they run 1,000-feet. It's just South of Russellvile, about 85 miles southeast of Ft. Smith. Go to Russellville on I-40 and go South about 12 miles out of Russellville on state highway 7... it goes right to Centerville. The strip is right outside town about a mile.
Good luck with your project!!!
