So you have had the car to the track with the new setup? I thought you said no ET's yet...what did it run with the new setup?
I run a Wilson Manifolds plate sytem, single stage, 150 horse shot on a 347. The chassis is NHRA Certified. Right now it is running 9.70's at 137 on a ten inch tire.
The coupe like yours ran 12.00 at 118 on an 8.5 inch x 26 inch slick, with a 5 speed. Broke everything on the coupe and all because of HP, 8 inch rear end, the auburn, the gears, the drive line, spun the housing around the spring perches...the trans got really sloppy...

So just be careful..
