You may want to post in the drag racing section, but I've never heard of shortening or lengthening LCA's for drag racing purposes. Dropping them lower on LCA brackets, yes.

I think by moving them back farther (increasing their length), you can get a more negative pinion angle on the torque arm preloading it more. That could be good for drag racing, but this is just a guess.

Adjustable LCA's are mostly used to center a larger tire in the wheel well namely drag slicks.
