I'm willing to meet at etown atco or cecil county and compensate anyone willing to help me pick the car up.
My combo is a "stock appearing" 360hp automatic with a turbo 400 and 4.56s. The motor made 660 on the engine dyno running through the stock exhaust manifolds, correct oval port heads, and cast iron intake which uses a holley.
G70-14 redline. Best 60 ft 1.74. I'm pulling out 15 degrees of timing for 1.5 seconds leaving off the foot brake. I know the digital 7 is capable of much more than I'm using it for now. I have santhuff springs up front with del alum bushings and single adj. QA1s. In the rear UMI adj. uppers, boxed lowers stock springs and sway bar and double adj QA1s. I'm losing ground to some of the other racers who have figured out how to get high 1.5 to 1.6 60 fts.
No hop bars are allowed. not much else. Trying to leave with full bore timing blows to tire away. Rear shock settings are another area where I know someone with more knowledge could be helpful.
Front springs are Santhuff 250lb. rear springs are stock. Front shocks are QA1 single adj. Rears are QA! double adj. Adjustable upper arms are technically not within the rules but are not enough of an infraction that anyone complains. 6 inch rims are all that's allowed but most racers run 7s. The basic premise of the class is that the cars appear stock to the casual observer. I'm running a turbo 400 with a 2.10 first gear with all light weight internals as well as a 12 bolt with 4.56s with a spool and gun drilled axles.

Bottomline is there is no magic in that MSD box and you've got to launch with full power. key to that is getting the front suspension to work so all the weight is on the back tires and it won't happen with those shocks nor A arms that are stock.
The 2.10 1st gear is hurting not helping and who built the trans?
What exactly is your performance goal?
