keeping front end too tight?

[Adger Smith]

This might be a cheaper way to go and give you spares. If the car is real heavy you might go with the 2.08
By the MPH you are running you should have the horsepower/torque to handle the long 1-2 ratio drop at the shift. The 1.98 will pull better off the shift due to the lower % drop.

Ed is right about the shocks/frontend. Look at the plant of your rear tire in the picture. Lifting the frontend higher with that combination is only going to add weight to a tire that is already hooked/planted. It could also waste time, lifting more.
