Drag radials/subframes would help alot. I think (someone may correct me) subframes even help in saving the torque boxes because of transfering the energy to the front of the car. I have 275/50/15 BFG drag radials and pulled a 2.0 60' spinning them all the way through first. I've only had 3 passes in my car, and they were done on a brand new starting line (more slippery than a regular street!).

What altitude is that track at? I figure you should be able to pull low 13s - high 12s with traction. Your mph seems a little low. It should be closer to 104-106. When I went to the track, I was shifting slowly into fourth because of transmission problems. Even with the stock heads/cam I'm probably in the 100-101 mph range (I'm an average driver at best). Granted I'm a little lighter but you got at least 30 hp on me. What's your fuel pressure and timing set at?
