12's possible?

My car run's a 14.15 @ 97.12mph with the passenger and rear seats removed, and the P/S belt off.

My engine is a recon reman 708502, all stock except for the cam. I don't know the compression ratio, but I surmise it will increase with the smaller combustion chambers on the new heads. (I think mine have 76cc)

My plan is to add the following parts:
Jeg's Aluminum 197 heads
1.6 ratio roller rockers
2800-3000 rpm stall converter
Edelbrock 750 cfm carb
S10 manual steering box
Subframe connectors
control arm relocation brackets
Further weight reduction (~50 lbs)

With all the mods in my sig, is a high 12 second pass realistic?

And yes, I know my headers have small primaries. New headers, a big cam, pistons, etc. will be on the way later on.
