"If I can ask,,What have you guys done to help yank the wheels up higher?? "
I don't mean to be fllipant with my response, but just simply more hp being applied to the ground is causing the big wheelstands.
It seems on a stocker, once your et dips into the 10 second range, the ability for the big wheelstand is possible. It is the car trying to accelerate that causes the wheelstand. If you bolted the rear tires to the ground, i don't think you could lift the front wheels off the ground (it's been a long time since I calculated it).
On our 'cuda, we were breaking in a new engine in March at Bowling Greene, Ky. The previous year it was running roughly low 11's at the time. The first time I made a real pass in the car, it got so high I had the sensation of falling over backwards in a chair and luckly shifted from 1st to 3rd to bring it down without crashing it. This was way before stockers were allowed wheelie bars. We changed the front shocks and did not have any issues after that. The car would've went roughly a 10.80 pass if I remember correctly.
