What traction mods have you done. With that much power, especially hitting like nitrous does, I would beef up my tranny, rear, suspension etc...

well im gonna switch to 4.10's in the rear and upgrade the output shafts the trans im gonna see how much power these t-56's can take hahah....
im gonna switch to coil-overs most likley and see wat happens i think i might start building a trans after the engine gets done hahah



my old set up i had 100-shot, bf drag radials 295, k&n intake, colder plugs, and bassani cat-back, that got me a best of 12.1 at 117 with a 1.805 60ft.

Keep us posted. I think your biggest issue will be a clutch if you are racing it a lot.
