what would help me hook I just installed my 228R cam and a 75 shot and i cant hook for nothing at all. What suspention upgrades do i really need to make to hook, i already got WS6 Wheels with Kuhmo Escta MX's in the works so hopefully that will help! i would just like to be able to hook when i drop it at 2.5k on my 3000stall and GO with as little spin as possible!

The first 2 things I would do is get some trailing arm relocation brackets and some drag radials. Nittos and MT/ET Street seem to be the most popular. From what Ive read the Nittos hook a little better on the street than the MT's, but the MT's hook alot better on the track. Also the Nittos have about twice the tread life.

You will notice a hell of a difference!
p.s you only need 1 torque arm. It's the triangle shaped piece that goes from the rear end to the tranny next to the driveshaft. You will need 2 LCA's and 2 re-location brackets though. They are sold as a set each though, so really you need a pair of LCA's and a pair of brackets

sticky tires + 450 hp + torque arm + stock 10bolt = tow truck
