With a set of 3.42 to 3.73 gears, plus upgrading your torque convertor to at least a holeshot 3000 convertor, you should be in the mid-high 12's if you can get traction. The torkmaster series of convertors are not really made for that kind of output...I've broken them behind hopped up 305's in heavy cars! You should have a 8.5" 10 bolt in there...it is plenty strong.
