Default Help the helpless

First, my spelling sucks and I'm sorry.
Ok, I have a 1998 camaro SS. Current mods are: air lid, smooth bellow, throttle body bypass, K&N, LS1 edit, MAC headers, gutted cats, exhaust cut out, subframe connectors, lower controle arms, panhard bar, lowering springs, drivshaft loop, Mosier 9 inch with 373's, short throw shifter (oh, ya it is a six speed), spec stage 3 clutch, g-force ta drag radials, plugs and wires, skip shift eliminator, air temp mod, and I think thats all.

It is a t-top car and has power everything so I know it is heavy, but I dont want to give up creature comforts, it is a daily driver and I want to keep the drivability but it seems like it should but down better than 339 hp and a 14.2.
Granted I am at about 4300 feet elivation or more, I just think it should be better than it is with the mods I have done. Any thoughts or tips would help.

Thanks
GeminiSS

I think @ that elevation your lookin at about a 13.0-13.4 ( you also gotta remember track conditions for the day ) and I think most anyone else who would chime in would tell you that most dynos will very from car to car ( what was your baseline dyno ) and that we would need the entire best run stats, from 60 foot time to mph.
