Default 14.40s to 13.90s with "Free Mods"?

Long story short I have a 94 LT1 Firebird all stock except for:
TH400 w/3000 stall
Cold Air Intake
Muffler Delete
3.23:1 (came with 2.73)

At full weight complete with spare tire & jack and 3/4 tank of gas it ran 14.42 @ 94mph.

Without completely gutting it into a race car I would like to remove as much unnecessary weight as possible and do the free mods (coolant bypass, 160 thermostat) and see how much quicker it goes.

I'm looking to remove:
  • Spare wheel & tire
  • Jack
  • Rear seat
  • Rear seatbelts
  • Passenger seat
  • Passenger seat belt
  • Smog pump
  • Most of the exhaust (gonna stick a race bullet right on the Y pipe)
  • Stereo
  • Speakers
  • Headliner (falling apart anyway)
  • Gas - run at almost empty
I also have an ALDL cable coming and am looking at flashhack to see if there's anything obvious I could improve in the tune.

So, with all of the above is there any chance I could pull off a 13.9x or am I way off?

Does anyone have any other "free mods" to recommend?
