what do you all think... In about 6 months i will be putting down about 530+ rwhp... as it is it is a bitch to get traction with the stockers and I am only at 480... i am only gonna run drag radials and am not going to go solid rear.. which ones should i go with.. this car sees the track about 1 time every 5 months.. not really a drag car.

I had 4.10 and switched to 3.73. I got about 550 RWHP. I like the 3.73s much better for my SC'd cobra. No opinion about 3.90s.

Run NITTOs at 16-18 but hopping is a MFr still. So my next project is solid axle. I added the LTs when I had my re-build done. The D-1SC is a strong beast. I am also still running CATs!

Add your LTs when the engine is out for sure! I am also running SHM Blower CAMs.
