Little update, the best shake down pass I could manage was a 7.101 @ 99.012 spinning with a 1.65 60'. It was pulling timing since my IAT's were over 130 and I didn't notice where it was pulling it from until Hummer pointed out where his timing was being stolen from, I also hit the rev limiter on the pass. Since then I have added an eboost2 and put the ebay fans as pullers, which didn't help because it's still rising over 210*. I'm going to get some new fans and fix that. I grabbed some LCA relocation brackets,some Competition Engineering drag shocks, and got some new 28x10.50x15S M/T ET Drags. I also painted my wheels since that picture, but I'll have to post that up after I wash it

yes, i'm spinning that bad(sideways). the car needs to hook, that was why i'm asking how you liked those shocks. Chris recommended them to me and me and him usually like to review products that we like. I wont be able to use mine for a while since my car is about 1200 miles away from me right now

That kind of mph with that slow et means once you hook you are going to be good to go. How much boost are you running? Mine was on 7lbs. I think alot of my trouble was due to the bald as QTP's that I was running. You couldn't even see the middle groove, but that's all I could find locally.
I'll post up the next time I go. But that will depend on if I get the rear or not.

I was cutting pretty consistant low 1.3's on nitrous with these same shocks. I have all the other suspension stuff also. I think that the drag bar was the single most important thing for traction for me. Stops the car from twisting and distributes the weight even between the rear tires.
