1/4 mile performance and 0-60' traction

I've never dragged before... did the following: Hotckiss LCA's, Panhard bar, and strut tower. Welded in Global West's sfc's.
Then... all the standard stuff... perf chip, k&n, lingenfelter 52mm T.B., SLP siamesed intake runners, Accel ignition, Gale Banks performance muffler....

Posted the following on third try:
13.92 @ 99mph
1.92 0-60' on Firestone street tires, GTX I believe...

Is this good, should I be happy, what else can I do while keeping engine stock internally, which is my goal?

Why is it everyone's goal to keep their engines "internally stock" is there something sacred about that? Anyhow, I think your car ran pretty good. I would be happy with those times.
