If you don't hit 12's I will be very surprised. But, if you don't .... install a set of LCA's.

When I installed my LCA's, I dropped my 60' time from 2.1 to 1.9. It allowed me to move my launch RPM from 1700 to 3000. With my 4.11 rear and Kumho 712's, traction is a huge problem for me.

Lighten it down killa, drop the front sway, rear seat, spare tire, rear speaker panels, floor mats, even T-top shades! You'll make it! I have LT's, SFC, LCA, and a TC on the way. I am hoping for 11's outta that. I agree, you shouldv'e been in the 12's already, mine did it without the LT's!

13.18 at 104??? From the sounds of it your already getting really good traction cause that's a low speed for that time. I'm gonna go out on the limb and say you won't get 12s unless u get your computer programmed. Many people don't see any gains with longtube headers until they get their a/f ratio right.
