Default How possible would 12's be for me??

I know I haven't posted in here in FOREVER but but here is the rundown of the car.

Bought the car the first weekend in June, Drove it to school that Sunday night (Wyotech in Blairsville, PA) Had the car on the dyno that Wednesday (dyno jet) car made 240whp 306wtq.
At this point The car had done to it 1.7 cobra rr's, Anderson Ford motorsports power pipe, 75mm maf, 70mm tb and egr plate, shorty headers, o/r h-pipe, flowmaster cat back, underdrive pulleys, bogart drag stars, nitto 555R's, and a ram clutch. Oh and you can't forget the Driver mod!!

I put my solid motor mounts and tranny mount, along with my cash for clunkers explorer GT40 intake on pulled the valve covers and saw it had rockers(didn't know before hand) , and they are stock e7's stock valve springs, pushrods and untouched intake ports. Also found out the car has 3.08 gears BUT with a 4 cyl tranny.

I went to Virgina Motorsports Park for the Import Face Off and my best pass of that day was 1.90 60' 8.49@82.3 13.26@102.56 Slipping the clutch from 6,000 and the da on that pass was 2650 weighed the car 3000 without me in it, and 3300 with me in it.

Well since all of that I've done ordered BBK lt's, dr. gas o/r x-pipe, I have a Taurus e-fan, and I have 3.73 gears, 31 spline axles and just have to order my posi for it, and a set of 27x10.5 M/T ET Streets.

So with all of this going on and some good weather by the end of October do you think it's possible for me busting in the 12's and if so how deep??

But here is a few pics of the car:







before intake swap.



after.

I'll see what I can do for ya when I get a free after noon, as long as you don't mind the weight I give you is with the tires on it.... Now I will say the rear wheels with the dr's on them feel almost as light as the front wheels with the baby front runners lol.
