I need my car to 60' like its been rear-ended by a school bus@60mph..
Whats all needed? I have subframes, lower control arms, torque arm and a drag bar so far.

Panhard bar, tires, gears, driver mod if you're an M6.

If you still have the 10 bolt and aren't ready to switch to something else I strongly suggest a girdle cover, welded axle tubes, and bracing.

What's your best 60ft now ? Is your lower control arms adjustable?

Shocks and tires from where you are at now. There's a bit more to it and what works for one car may not be your answer. A M6 car is tough to get good consistent launches out of unless you have all the right equipment and skill.

LOL!!


Car is a stock block ls1 with H/C/I and a 150 shot. Built 4l60 with a yank SS3600. I just bought this car in November so no track times as of yet. I just wanna be ready to roll come warmer weather. Also the car will have a S60, spool and 3.73's

SMEC-SS

Yes they are

Based on that combo if you spray out of the hole and it sticks it outta leave like a freight train.

That's the plan. I'm just wanting the full 150shot to come on outta the hole. I do have a NX maximizer that I can play with. Im hoping low 1.5's or better

If the lower control arms are adjustable and the torque arm is adjustable you should be able to pull a 1.5 60ft. Just have to use what you already have and dial it in. Other wise look towards getting some shocks. Vikings seem to be the hot ticket..

I do that now on just motor. If you 1.5 on spray something is wrong! Here's my combo:

if you can plant the power you should definitely be sub 1.5 if not just turn on a few MS delay and then put the entire kit on or do a slow progressive with a set delay...also what the weight? have you scaled your car (all 4 corners)? what tires? pinion angle? are you going to shock the tires and come off tbrake? there are a lot more questions but this should get you started

Thanks, since our combos are similar that kinda gives you an idea on what to shoot for. Like I said, it should be wicked coming out of the hole on spray. And I can promise you, a good light plus a hard launch will win you a ton of races.

SMEC-SS

What gear and tire size you have in the rear? You spraying the car too?

SMEC-SS

Haven't weighed the car but if I had to guess around 3600#'s.

Going with a M@H 28" drag radial

Pinion angle is -2

No brake

You need shocks for sure. Weight transfer and suspension control are going to be crucial for good consistent performance.

Give us a call and we will be happy to work with you on getting your power to the ground!

Like others have said shocks would definitely be the next thing I would look at if I were in your position. They will help improve the consistency and performance of the car dramatically. Having a set of shocks that will allow the car to transfer weight will really improve your 60ft times.

We would be more than happy to help you out in any way we can so just let us know.
