Are my expectations too high?

Well things didn’t go so well at the track. The car seemed super “lazy” the first pass (and was the best pass). It went 13.56 @ 95 mph with a 1.90 60 foot. Looking at that mph you might recognize that something was off. I made 2 more passes slowing approximately tenths and 3-4 mph each pass until finally the bottom end started knocking. This was my second short block in this car in a month. The previous short block spun rod bearings. My torque converter ended up being balanced for an LA engine instead of being balanced for a magnum engine. I am in the process of correcting everything. I still believe that this is a 12 second combination.
