Thanks yall!
The plan is to...
1. Get the front shocks revalved.
2. Move the battery back up front.
3. Hit it harder and earlier w/ the nitrous.
4. Hope the transmission doesn't $hit the bed.

Should have the car back together this weekend. Have to weld some bungs onto the oil pan for the oil sight tube, then I can reassemble everything. The bigger and better oil pan may even free up some power.
It will likely be a few months before I get back to the track though.
