Try using the clutch alittle bit,its easier on drive train and you might find some missing et in your 60ft.i found on my stick car,3150lbs hci 340whp fox,3.73 gears and a decent clutch on motor it liked 5500 with just a slight slide of clutch and wood of the gas pedal,it would go 1.58s to 1.55s all day.Just a thought,as i used to leave on the wood with a side step and it would bog and go 1.68s to 1.71s that way

Nothing special.
Wildrides S-Box (destroyed factory upper boxes) Steeda Adjustable uppers w/heim joints Steeda solid upper "bushings" in housing Pinion angle set to -1.5 degrees X2C lowers (remember those !?!?) 2 Steeda right hand drag springs Factory Sway bar No pinion snubber Strange Engineering Adjustable shocks set @ 5 Air bag in right rear set @ 30 psi 26 X 10 Mickey Thompson E.T Drags (stiff sidewall) w/tubes and screwed to rims. Set to 11 psi cold. Then readjusted back to 11 after first run. They usually are up to 12.5 after first run
Front suspension is pretty much factory Original springs Original k-member Original Control arms No sway bar Strange Engineering struts set @ 2
I think that's it.
