Room for improvement?

here is my best run at the track:
reaction .890
60ft 2.086
330ft 5.867
1/8 et 8.978
1/8 mph 79.24
1/4 et 13.932
1/4 mph 99.09mph

This was done with the mods listed in my sig except for the MSD 6al. I was running on et streets one side was 30 psi and the other I think was 28 I was so excited and no one was there to help me out and let me know what I was doing wrong Also didn't really smoke the tires up. Full tank of gas. Stalling up to 1500rpm on a stock stall. 17 SS rims up front that I think had 30 or 32 psi since I just found out today and filled up to 35 psi. So I was wondering if there is some room for improvement? Would I be able to hit the 13.8 13.7s? I am planning to practice without having et street to practice launching. Is the 17ss rims going to hurt me in the 1/4 mile? Would I be able to hit my 13.7s 13.8s on the ss rims? What psi should I try on them when I do go out and race. Sorry for the long post. Any tips and suggestions would be greatly apprecaited. Thanks in advance.

Headers and a torque converter. You should see a significant improvement.
