I am running stock rearend 342 and stock suspension. What is a good mod for the stardard side step the clutch at 2000rpm? (no NOS, just NA having fun with guys from work. ) I am giving up a car link or two everytime I race from a light because of solid spin...no wheel hop or anything like that. Can I get away with just replacing stock LCA? Or will that be a waste of time. I guess I am just looking for that first susp. mod without breaking the bank.

Anybody here remove there swaybar? I have heard that can help. I only drive my car a few miles a day and I am a simple minded person that only race's in a straight line on my way or leaving work. All other times we take the wifes SUV. Thanks in advance

 

The problem isn't in your suspension as much as it is in your launch- don't dump the clutch on launch unless you know you can hook.

You'll see much better launches if you feather the clutch. Put the RPM around 2.5k and release the clutch smoothly but quickly. You should feel a slight spin before the car hooks. If it bogs, you need to launch at a higher RPM.

As far as suspension upgrades- LCA's will make a big difference, and a torque arm and panhard rod will help too. Most important are your tires, get some sticky DR's!

 

A good tire ??

But suspension-wize.... anything that will locate and keep the IC from changing. Harder durometer bushings in the torque arm, an adjustable torque arm alltogether or damper settings (if adjustable.)

I normally come off the clutch at 4.5k and it spins about 12-18 feet out of the hole (BFG Radial and 3.55 gears) and then it hooks up like like no other. But with the suspension set-up I have, I know there is very little IC change throughout the suspension travel.
