30" inch tires, radius wheel wells, more gear for tires, converter. Based on the results from this past weekend, I believe I achieved my goal for about $300 in parts. Thankfully, I don't have to chase an ever descending index to remain competitive.

If chassis separation is an outmoded concept, then what is the current thinking for stock suspended cars?

If you would go to an NHRA race, and watch the faster F body cars run you would see. I went through all that before I had mine back halved. I don't think you will find many adjustable "LCA brackets" used. I took that crap right back off. If your making any power at all I think your going to need taller tires, or a very soft converter like the "outlaw radial " guys run.
