My opinion yes.. You have the mph all you need now is gettin that 60ft down LOW!!! I ran 12.7 @ 107 with a 1.8 60ft wit NO mods(stock).... So yea im gonna say with traction you should be well on your way
btw good luck and let us know when ya get there

With traction you should be high 12's... if anything a 100 shot nitrous kit will put you easily in it with traction or no traction!

With your mods plus ET streets, no front sway bar, rear seat, spare tire/jack, AIR or EGR plus SLP CAI and stock 3.23's I ran consistent 12.6's @ 106.5. Keep in mind that tire slippage will increase your mph vs if you stick.

You need a sticky tire and better 60's. When I was at that mod level I hit a best of 1.726.

I bet your 60' was a 2.4 You need tires if you have a stall, helps tremendously.
