Awesome thanks for the info! I am shocked you are hooking that hard on 17" rims also! Very impressive. Those vikings sounds like the cats ***.. I was loading my converter when I hit 1.8 on slicks with heavy 18" chrome rims up front and it seemed like weight transfer was hurting me so I'll try hitting it from 1k next month when I go. I think the torque arm, skinnies, and removed sway bar should make a difference. I'm piecing together my heads and cam for next year when I find good deals, may shoot for a similar setup to yours and the OP's.. thanks again for the info!

Pondriver, I'm looking forward to your track times, keep us posted! Your car sounds great!

 

The deleting of the front sway bar definitely helps bring the front end up....

 

Made 4 passes, this was my best. I had it in 3 gear and let it shift itself.

 

Nice pass. I'll be ordering the Titan IV for my build soon. What wheel/tire combo are you running?

 

I had a set of et streets, 26x10.50-16, I threw on some stock wheels.
