Why is the car so heavy? I only pulled my jack and spare tire and I'm at 3530 with no other weight reduction. I even had over a half tank of gas in the car and I'm not light either (230 at the time, 195 now). Check this thread out, it explains all the light weight mods.. https://ls1tech.com/forums/drag-racing-tech/17319-weight-reduction-list.html
One other thing. I have a vig 3600 converter in my car temporarily and I'm really not impressed with it. I had a Yank SS4k converter that hit much harder and pulled better on the top end. I know that I gave up .05 in the 60' and .15 in the quarter as well as a solid MPH when the vig went in the car. I don't know how your vig behaves, but I know that I will not miss mine when the Yank goes back in.
The 98 heads aren't the greatest either. I have a fresh set of ported heads with big valves for sale cheap if you're interested.
