Default Need help hooking

My track setup:
Adj. Torque arm
Adj. Panhard bar
non-adj. Lower control arms
L.C.A. relocation brackets
Sway bar relocation brackets
!front sway bar
Sub frame connectors
M.T. E.T. streets out back

My car won't seem to hook really well at the track. It's a full bolt on 6spd car. Best 60' is a 1.81. I think it's time to start messing around with shocks/ springs. What should I look at getting? The car has a moser 9in and I would like to launch the car at 5800+ rpm and hook without spinning. What's the best budget spring/shock setup for the street/strip?

Give me a call here at the office. I can help you with your setup. Shocks do play a very important part of getting the car to hook. I am in the office until 5:30pm est mon-fri.
