How wide of a rear wheel are you running with these? What's your suspension look like? These tires are over 28"!
You can't compare a 17" Drag radial to a 15" Bias. I will tell you, my car 60's just as well on 15" Drag Radials as it did on ET Drags before, and traps 2 MPH faster. Even if it didn't, stability at 160+ MPH is worth the switch.
you still running a manual Travis? I can never get my car too hook at the track on radials, spins them there worse than the street. i wish i had the suspension and more importantly the patience to dial it in. too easy to throw slicks on it and let her eat, saves the clutch too. you get used to the swaying but its still unnerving at 140-150+ especially when you come off the throttle
Your car is looking great Ryan... It's been a while since I've seen it!
I'm still rowing gears, probably always will be. Go QA-1 in the rear with a bag and BMR rear drag bar, and she'll launch. I saw a 1.29 60' on the 325 Radials. I'm at -2.7 Pinion angle on the reloc Spohn D/A, and Hal Coils and QA-1 D/A up front. My biggest issue is keeping the front end down, as the track temps change, the game changes. It's going to be a whole new learning curve with the 454, it makes wicked torque down low, so the out of the hole nitrous launches may be a thing of the past.
We all need to get together soon!

I'd run a M&H 325/50/17. They seem to do the best as an all around street/track tire.
If you want a similar tire the MT ET Street II's (radials) in a 315/40/17 work well also.
Of course a set of 15" wheels and a set of Hoosier 275/60's would be my #1 choice though. For a greasy hot summer track the Hoosiers with their softer sidewall are working better than the new M/T pro's as the M/T has a stiffer sidewall. On a perfect track the M/T's seem to have a slight advantage as does anything stiffer on a perfect track.

This is true as I found out today, damn rear end was dancing around in the back half.
