60ft killing me ok my best 60ft time was a 1:83 i ran a 12:38 @115mph. everyone at the track and my buddies is telling me i should be cutting around 1.6's. i have a 98 stock suspion stock weight and frame connectors. it's fm-14 lsa 114 cam, yank 3600 stall, 4.10 gear 10 bolt. umi chassis mount torque arm set at -3.
the 12:38 pass was on a 75 shot dry when i launched i was on the spray. i run m/t et streets, 26/10.5/15's.

To be honest, see if you can get your hands on a set of M/T Drag radials with a 26-27" tall tire, your 28 runs like a 29 at speed and I est that even though you are running 4.10's, you either need more gear or at the very least more stall.
** I see a diff between the sig and the post so pls clearify if 26 or 28.
Taking some weight out of the car will never hurt, are you running skinnies and do you still run a front sway bar??

i had 28" slicks on it and it spunt the driver rear rim and ripped the inter tube and chewed up the slick, now i run the 26 et streets till next season figured there was no hurry to buy new slicks if i was just going to make about 6 more passes this season.
i have skinnies up front with no front sway bar.
when i have enough to buy a 9" rear end i was thinking of going to a 4.33 or 4.56 gear and a 4000 stall but wasn't sure if that was to much gear for the motor with the spray.

depending opn the powerband and if you raise the pills, the 4.33-4.56 gear will likely be way too much gear for the juice unless you run a nitrous-specific converter (tight on the motor=slower but works well on the bottle without overslipping). 115 mph fully hooked should net 1.5x 60 foots and mid 11s if the car works correctly.
