She has more in her.. but, my alternator decided to come apart at about half track.. Looks like the rear bearing went south.. wacked the crap out of it with a hammer, tightened the nut back up on the pulley, and drove home.. The 4.10's really woke the car up though.. Finally.. no more 55mph in 1st gear!

Awesome! What was the 60'? Time for a built/welded rear with some massive slicks

Click to expand...

1.83 was my best effort.. It went something like.. *hop* *hop* and then it grabbed hard.. Time for some coilovers.. I've got my Auburn diff.. just need some Strange axles to finish it off..

Coilovers might help a bit - but panhard/torque arm setup will really help you get traction. The advantage of coilovers is the ability to tune the car for different handling characteristics by adjusting ride height, corner weighting, and they are also light weight - especially if you go with a control arm with no lower spring perch (Maximum Motorsports XD's are great, and I personally haven't gotten any vibration until upwards of 140mph...).

What brand/setup do you recommend? This isn't a full blown drag car.. so I want to keep it reasonable.. just a weekend warrior/daily driver.. soon to be in the 550-600whp range..
