I hate to put a damper on your plans, but, 3" duals with dumps would be a
performance killer, 2" would work better, and install a high-flow cat.
Draglights would be nice, but they are not made for 6x4.5 bolt pattern (I
checked), you could get a set of Centerline Warrior wheels and swap front
rotors to pre-91 and use 5" fronts (dont go too small or they will be killed
by the first chuckhole you hit), to get the biggest advantage, use a set of
M/T street slicks and matching fronts, they are considerably lighter than
radials. I also think that the 150hp NOS shot would be o.k. a couple of
times, but would kill your engine soon. You will have to use a timing retard
unit.

Forget polishing your TB, pull the intake, cut the runners, box the plenum,
bore the holes for the TB to 2" and install a V-8 T-body. Buy a new cam from
Magnum Performance, and install a set of roller rockers.

I think that if you do these things, you should be able to hit low 13's,
maybe even 12's with enough NOS.
