Keep practicing, trial and error until you find something that works. Maybe even keep a log of what you try to see what is working best, instead of trying to remember it all. Good luck!

All I can say is that yesterday was my first time on et streets at the track and 
. I've got no front sway bar and lca's and sfc's as my only real suspension mods. I had way too much pressure in the ets yesterday(20 lbs, damn cheap guage being off) and we have crappy track prep. People on nittos couldn't do much better than 2.0's-2.1's. My first run out, I pulled a 1.68 60ft. Backed it up with a 1.69 in the "slicker" lane. Get some lca's and et streets, really thats all u need for suspension with your mods.
BTW, I've got a 3000 2.5 str stall and 3.73's.

NO traction
I feel your pain man. Ive got a 2000 Z28 with all bolt ons and a 3500 stall. With no stall or nittos i ran a 13.05 at 106. And with the stall and the nittos all i could manage was a 12.92 at 107. My 60' foot times were 2.1 and 2.08 before the stall and tires, and friday they were 2.2 and 2.3. Of course that was spinning the tires about 20 to 25 foot down the track. O well i guess i need to practice my burnouts this week

I got ET streets because with a 3200 stall your going to need them or it's a smoke show even with the nittos. I have a BMR adj. torque arm and all the other suspension stuff in my sig. i ran 2.0, 2.1 60' all day with crappy street tires. Do you have any suspension stuff done? Off topic i just put a 3200 stall in my car when i did the tranny it's a vigilante. Did you guys have any probs with the way the car shifted. I've been hearing things about a "stall wall" that pre 96 (obd1) cars won't work right with anything higher than a 2800. I mean it doens't seem to come down when it shifts....it shifts but then it only comes down to 4k i never paid attention before then but i know it came down a little farther. I hope LT1Edit will fix this
P.S. sorry to jack your thread.
