Re: Looking for some racing advice.
Put Slicks on it, get a line lock so that you can properly warm them up. Wind it up to just under the max torque and dump the clutch and be ready to do some quick shifting.
My best 60 foot at the SR was a traction limited 1.77. I am going to put a line lock on so that I can properly heat my tires. The L88 cam provides little vacuum to the brake booster and I can't hold the tires long enough to get them real sticky.
Letting off the gas and granny shifting can also cost you some time once the car has been launched, no matter the set up.
Practice until you will find out where the traction/hp limitation of the suspension and tires is.
Your engine set up is very similar to my COPO/427. I also have a DZ carb, headers, L88 spec cam.
You are talking two complete different set ups from what the pure stock guys are doing and the modified old school Super Stocker style set up.
