Fast SS on TNT

Okay, new launch technique needed. Here is the setup!
98 Camaro SS M6
HPM Mega Bite Torque Arm (excellent)
Moser 12 w/ 4.10 gears
Spohn Relocation Brackets
Wolf Racecraft Sway Bar (Big Sombitch)
Eibach Drag Launch Spring and Airbag
HPM Trailing Arms/SFC's tied to Torque Arm
MT ET Drags 26/10/15's on Weld Draglites
6 point welded in cage
Can I possibly hit a 1.30's 60 ft time? I have the horsepower, the car is as tight as a virgin on her wedding nite. My previous best 60ft time was a very disappointing 1.88 60ft w/ 11.77 @121 mph, with a: Dry NOS, Nittos,Trailing Arms, and Eibach prokit...nothing else. Please humor me, and tell me 1.30's are possible...okay dont humor me, be honest. The key to me hitting my goal of a 10.8 on stock internals depends on the $3500 I just spent on 60ft time related parts!!!

There has only been 1 stick LS1 with a 60 that low, its the SAM car it dose high 1.2's i think. I remember seeing a few high 1.3's.(Allen Futral)

you are not going to get it done with those tires, you ginog to need somthing BIGGER at least 28in. with a 10+ in. tread width. I run a goodyear eagle 28x10.5x15 D3 compound.

Are your ET drags stiff sidewall for a stick car?

I have cut a best sixty of 1.48, on that run I left at 6400rpm's ON the spray (150 wet shot)Dead hook.

I hope you didn't get the eaton posi with the 12-bolt because it wont last, mine didn't only 3 passes and i destoryed the spider gears. You'll need a Full spool.

My suspension consists of BMR long arm, BMR lca's,relocation brackets,rear hals,RR airbag,addco 1-inch sway bar, all stock up front except no sway bar.

I don't think your the spec clutch will work either.

I'm sure Coach will pop in here and offer up some of his advise.

You'll never hit 1.3s or even 1.4s with that setup, but if you switch over to a wet juice setup (and run like a 175 shot), you might hit a high 1.4 at the right track.

My bad, I must of confused you on my new setup vs. my old setup
Old:
11.77 @ 121mph w/1.88 60ft time
NOS Dry 125, stock suspension, Nitto Drags, HPM trailing arms,stock 10 bolt w/4.10 gears, NO relocation brackets and no cage. Z06 clutch went belly up! I had the motor work done and juice, thats about it.
NEW:
TNT F1, Moser 12 w/Spool & 4.10 gears//Wolf Racecraft Sway Bar//HPM Torque Arm//Eibach Launch kit//Spohn Relocation Brackets//6pt Welded Cage// HPM TA's,SFC's and adjustable panhard//Lightened the car down to 3350lbs//removed front sway bar//Weld Draglites//MT ET Drags 26x10x15....Maybe that list will help a little more.
I am also adding HAL shocks (front and back) and will go to a 28" slick...What else can I do???

I have the MPH for an easy 10.8 but the hook has got to be right on the money!
