Default Will this combo get me into the 13s?

Hey all...just wanna know if this combo will get me into the 13s, and if so how far.

3.73 gears
BBK Shorty headers
BBK Off road X pipe, flowmaster muffs
B303 or similar street cam
1.7 RRs
Stock heads.

Any ideas?

no, the 3.73 help but the headers and x-pipe anit doin shyt the cam helps no if u get different heads or have them cut for larger intake valves and exshaut on the other hand and throw in some larger valves and valve springs and those 1.7rr's help to but those r my thoughts and it should get u to ur 13's and when u get to the track lose the spare tire, jack, any weight not need 1/3 to 1/4 tank of gas and that will get u to ur 13's anybody agree

I'd think you would hit 13's with a good set of tires. 4.10's would definitly make it easier to hit 13's though. If you don't have the bbk off road x pipe yet I'll sell you one for $40, I have no use for mine anymore.
