I think you can drop the base another turn. I have my 66 vert down to 280 lbs with 11.8 grams of weight on Tim Hyatts levers. What size slick is that? The 3300 lbs, is that with you in it. My 66 with an aluminum headed small block hard top only and no bumpers, full stock interior came in at 2805. Did you do anything to front end for bump steer? My front is almost on bump stops and the nose is almost fully extended all the way down the track.

L-79, There in lays a problem, the reason your frontend is in the air is because air is pushing it up as you go down track. Get it to settle back down and you will pick up et and mph.

Its been many years since I ran mine, front end was done by Jack Arnew and there was a big difference after the car was done. Can not say a spoiler would help or not, could not use the in Stock or SS unless the car came with them. Some company makes a shock that locks down when you hit the switch, been a long time so cant remember that either....getting old sucks. bp

But, it beats the alternative.
That's how you have to think of it.
