New best tonight... but not too much of an improvement. 
This past May, I went 13.176 @ 106.78 with: 2.25" - 2.5" stepped ORY, MAFT, MAF ends, cut out, 3.42's, lid, free mods, ported TB. Tonight my best was 13.113 @ 108.73 with the above mods plus: LT's & 3" ORY, ASP pulley, LCA's, & LS6 intake. My 4L60E acts like it's banging the rev limiter on the 1-2 shifts, but it occours at 5500 RPM, my 2-3 shift arrives at 5800-5900 and has no problems at all. 
My best MPH tonight was 109.09 on a 13.124 pass. On my first pass, I went 13.229 @ 107.37, then I unplugged the MAFT and the car picked up some. The MPH was definately up afterwards.
Thoughts? Insults? Suggestions?
EDIT: I swapped back to stock MAF ends w/ screen after the LT's, LS6 intake, etc. I was hoping the ported ends were causing my 1-2 shift problems, but it hasn't gotten any better. I'm considering trying a set of unported ends w/ the screen removed next time.

Nice improvement. How long has it been since the tranny was freshened?

I'm kinda miffed... I picked up 2.31 MPH, and only .063 in the 1/4. The DA was -5 this time, 1400+ when I ran it last time. My 60' was .033 slower... shouldn't be too much of an impact.
In a way, I want to just fix the tranny and throw on some stickier tires - then run it again. But, I have a SY3500 and HAL QA1's w/ drag springs sitting out in the shop. I have a feeling next time I go - the tranny will be fixed, the verter will be in, the QA1's will be installed, & I'll be on a set of 26X10 ET Streets. I'm hoping that will net me 12.2 - 12.3 @ 111-112 MPH.
