You're pretty much wasting that 3000 stall with the car set up as it is. You should really get some tires. The old saying is for every .1 you can take off your 60' time, you take .2 off your 1/4. So if you can get that 60' down to a 1.9 or 2.0, you're into the 14's already.
With a mildly tuned 5.0, you can get away with a valvebody. Not up on the TCI but Lentech does have a nice one. 1=1, D=2, OD=3 and OD is activated by an electric switch.
You're also going to lose some time with the lockup converter. Switching it to non lock up would allow the motor to pull all the way thru 3rd but not really worth it by the sounds of your car's main usuage. If you kept an eye on the tach during your runs, you were probably way down in the rpm's when you went thru the traps.
So basically, sticky tires, more launch rpms, valvebody and gears. You can go up to a 3.73 or 3.90 and still not effect you MPG too much with the lockup converter.
