Move your weight box to the front of the car Bob..

I agree with Phillip, If you dont need it for bite move it to the front and it also helps settle the front end down on the top end.

Well, we have the high dollar double adjustable shocks on both cars. But the SS/EA Camaro has stop bolts as well. And yes, moving weight forward is a good idea, and works best. But you don't want it all the way forward. Permanent ballast about a foot or two in front of the rear axle. Still weight to help it hook, but not weight to make it wheelstand.

I wish I had a photo then at least I wouldn't feel so bad about my flat headers. 4 photographers on site that day but I don't do many wheelies so none were paying attention. I was trying some weight in the trunk and got bit of a suprise.
