Default need help...suggestions are welcome!

ok heres my problem. as of right now i'm running a low 12.1 @ 114. my 60' is around 1.85. im not really having a traction problem anymore and i wanted to know what i can do to get my 60's down. i know if i bought a bigger converter and have this problem fixed but i really dont want a big one and dont have the money for a new one. im going through the traps around 4k. i was thinking of doing 3.73 gears. i would really like to get my car into the 11's before putting my stage II patriot heads on.

heres whats done to the car (just a short idea)
stock LS6 heads
Long tubes
224/230 cam
LS6 intake
2700 converter
3.42 gears
MT drag radials
