Where did you weigh your car and what are carrying around in it that adds so much weight? Just that I've never heard of a raceweight that high in a late model Fbody. Post up your previous known power level vs. mph before you were having problems.

My last setup was 490 rwhp on a 100 shot.
My best mph was 127. The only time I sprayed the 200 on the nittos
I spun the entire track and ran 129 mph
The old setup was 226 228 cam t-56 and 10 bolt on nittos

The new setup is big cam th400, 4200 stall, 12 bolt, bmr xtreme suspension
Wolfe rollgage, Dual stage NX 100/100, and mt drag 28x10.5.
The new dyno was 530 on the 200 through the th400 and 580 with the t-56.

I don't know the weight before, but with dennis from Action Performance driving the car it was 3900lbs at osw after my 10.6@ 126 run. Dennis is a pretty big guy.

The project is still being built, but it's a 6.0L w/ the MS3 and LPE heads, 2.02/1.57 valves. Shooting for 400-425 rwhp, if the '93 Cav tranny stays in one piece :eek2: . The car should be around 2600 lbs when done, started at 2700 lbs. Hopefully mid 11s. Oh yeah, its a '87 Fiero :) , not a F-body, sorry.
