Need info on chassis tuning?

I cant help you out much with the front coil-overs as I dont run them. Basically if you only have 1 set of springs for them, all you can do is adjust the ride height. You can get different springs for them if you need to tighter or softer.

The best advice I could offer overall is to get a 4 wheel alignment done by a competent alignment person who is familiar with race cars. Why a 4 wheel alignment you ask? This will tell you how square the rearend is with the car. (also known as thrust angle)

One thing that is often overlooked on a drag car is bumpsteer. If your car is lowered, chances are you have excessive bumpsteer. This isnt going to affect you much off of the line, but when the front end of the car is bouncing up and down during gear changes, it will definately affect the direction the car goes.

If I were you, I would concentrate more on the rear suspension settings first. But its kinda hard to offer any advice without knowing what your weight bias is or what kind of suspension components you have.
