A good set of LCA's is a good start. If it doesn't fix your problem, try installing some relocation brackets on the car.

Re: wheel hop elimination I completely agree with Mcrat, tire pressure can cure wheel hop and will at least help. My GSC's on a 2.1 60ft. launch with 35 psi will hop hard at 29 psi no hop at all! SPAZEAK I would try this before spending any loot. Cant hurt.
