The 60 foot is still lacking for your ET. On the motor based on mph you should be at least 2 to 3/10 faster, but the problem is that setting a converter up for perfect N/A operation may be too loose for a nitrous blast.
As a point of comparison, my Nova runs 11.40s at 115-116 mph with a 1.56-1.59 60 foot. A 120 shot of bottle drops it about 8-9 tenths and shaves about 6-9 hundredths off the 60 foot. Your gearing and/or converter could stand a little bit of change to get the most out of your combination.
