Default lt1 vs c5 vette

Well since this a bench racing im joining in.. A buddy of mine just picked up a 2000 c5 a4 vette hardtop and wants to run them his car is bone stock down to the filter. I havent been to the track since the cam, longtubes and tune but before all that it ran 13.9@100... So what do you guys think.. By the way my car is an a4 stock stall and 373 gears.. He wants to do a 30 roll and from a dig
