I say the m/t drag radials. I have been 1.53 60ft on those and thats with the 7.5. Im auto also so that helps. Plus i am running a girdle. That 2.3 60ft is terrible. You can gain over .5 just by improving it.

60 foot is terrible. buy some 16inch camaro wheels and buy some 255/50/16 MT et street radials. If you were an auto I would say buy a girdle, but being a 6 speed probably not worth it.
