1949-1954 1/4 mile with 5.3

What 1/4 mile times have people got with what mods on these trucks with a 5.3 ls engine. I've looked a bit but not much out there from what I've seen. We're doing 5.3 Chevy in a 1953 with mustang 2 welded in, speed way 4 link, and Ford 8.8 4.11 gear. All metal body. We plan to use a 4l60e. But the main concern is that we can run a mid 12 with any luck with just a cam. I want to be able to Cruise and hit the strip in sportman without reliability issues. We have a fat set of tires 29.5x10.5w slicks that fit the truck but it's a bit much I'm thinking a 9" tire on the srteet and strip.
