Stanger, the best I ever got out of my stock tires was a 2.02 60 foot. Some of that was due to the 3.73's and stock converter.
As far as power - I have pullies, plenum and 75mm TB, X pipe with cats and catback. When I made that run I had a timing adjuster but have since switched to a SCT 4 bank chip and ran 12.89 and trapped as high as 107.
My biggest gains were from the converter and 4.30 gears. If you want to run without a power adder concentrate on beefing up the rear end, gears and sticky tires. The new cars will run 12's with just a little power over stock if set up right. Just add exhaust and traction. I have seen a new 05 GT go 13.6 bone stock. With gears and slicks they will run 13 flat no problem. The 3 valve heads flow good.
