DAMN! I have no idea why you are so slow......My '78 ran a 15.2 @ 91 mph with headers and dual exhaust, open scoop and K&N. That's it. I shifted myself, did a burn out with my bfg radial Ta's, and I was off. Not to mention, my intake manifold had a huge vaccuum leak, due to me missing an entire hose. I sure hope that is not a normal time for an engine setup like that, our cars are very heavy and all, but damn. Maybe very bad traction? But even then, trap speed is usually higher than the avg ET it goes with if you have major traction issues, I think. How does the car run in general? Does it seem very strong on the street? Do you have any other cars that you have compared it to on the street?
