looking good.
When mine had 3.73's and an off road H pipe (otherwise stock) it went 13.2's on 235/60-15 drag radials.
If your stock tach is accurate you are shifting it too high. 5500 for 1st to 2nd is ok, but the next 2 shifts will probably want to be around 5000-5200.
For the launch, remember, a dead hook will result in a bog, and bog = breakage.
Try leaving the pressure at 15.5-16 and launch that thing at 5500rpm, it should spin the tires, then start working air pressure back till you are just rolling them over out of the hole.
Bet your time plummet.

What was your mph at half track and at the 1/4?
