Another "what should I run"

Since it's looking like I won't have my engine back in my car before the track closes I'm curious as to what the upgrades I did should do to my times
With an L31 .40 over, 10.5:1 compression, 2.77 gears, LT4 hot cam, 1.6 rockers, EQ Lightning 180 CC vortec heads, Stealth ram with 52mm BBK TB, and 21# injectors untuned I went 13.91 @ 101.1 with a 2.155 60'.

Since then I upped the compression to 10.7:1, upgraded to 28# injectors with a mail order tune (I know Dyno is better but its all I could do for now), balanced rotating assembly, and 3.90 gears.

I'm hoping that would get me into the 12s...

Auto or manual? What tire setup? Improving the 60' alone should help tremendous.....that combo should have more then enough for a 12.
