Hey Guys... i decided to go with Pheonix 9x30 bias, like i had on it before...
They are super consistent and dont take hardly a burnout to hook. My car, with a little 4.10 gear and trw/solid lifter/home port iron heads, always did 1.50 60ft times, constistantly. One day, in good air, with my brother driving, (he was about 50-60lbs lighter than me at the time... went a string of 60fts from 1.482 to 1.491 (seven passes). I ordered them today!! THanks for all the banter and advice! I was mainly wondering if radials would work without trick springs in the front... when i get springs in it, im sure the rear is working good enough to try the radials....also, a 400 with more rear gear and higher stall, will help the situation
