Lightbulb Shooting for 12's in a RCSB

Hey guys I have a 01' Silverado (5.3L). Its basically 100% stock. The only mods are Pacesetter LT's (catless Y) and a K&N filter. Ran a 14.88 in the 1/4 with 20" Centerlines, highway gears, full street weight, spare, 3/4 tank of regular unleaded gas. I'm looking to get at least into the high 12's and best of low 12's (12.20's). I'm looking at the TSP 2.5 Stage heads, a TR220 112LSA, 3600 stall, 3.73 gears, also maybe a Detroit or G80 locker and getting my 4L60 built. Any ideas on where that would put me?

Right where you want to be, if you put it on a diet and run on stock rims

I'll see if I can get some MT Et streets on some 16's or something......buying tires for those 20" are starting to hit that wallet. ESP since I don't have a real job yet

Yeah I did have it on there, but I decided to keep it . Had too many people trying to screw me around on the deal so I said fush it and so now I'll just keep it and paint it and keep on truckin' with it

by the way seems like you know what you want and it will work, i would do 4.10's before i do a head swap, you'll be surprised on how deep into the 12's you'll be with stock heads...
