Hello
First welcome to the forum! To help you improve your 60ft times. I would suggest going with aftermarket rear LCA's and Pan Hard Bar. And a set of relocation brackets to eliminate any wheel hoping issues and increase your traction performance. And as well as a set of SFC's to allow you to keep the chassis solid and eliminate any issues with chassis damage such as dimples on the quarter panels. And also a tunnel mounted torque arm will allow the weight to transfer faster than a full length arm and also will allow you to adjust your pinion angle. And last thing would be a set of coil-overs to help with weight transfer and a good set of shocks to allow the weight to carry over the rear and not unload so fast. Below is a link to show you what all UMI Performance has to offer!

If you have any questions feel free to ask and I will be more than glad to help.
Thanks

First things first. What kind of car is this, how much power does it have, what are your goals for the car, what type of drivability issues are you willing to put up with, and what's your budget look like?

The more information you give out about your car the better the chances that you are going to get a meaningful answer.

Good luck,

Hello
For a Drag/Street set up. I would suggest going with a stock rear spring and a good adjustable rear shock. And as far as the front you could always go with a coil over set up to help with your weight transfer. And a 300lb spring will still allow you to maintain a good ride quality and make the car perform well too. If you have any other questions feel free to ask.
Thanks
