Congrats Doug,

Sounds like the new bullet you loaded in
the gun is going to do the job, with some tweaking I don't see high 9's being a problem with
your set up.

Keep after it small changes, sometimes brings
the most gains, just keep up with what you do, so you know what happens, and if it doesn't work you can go back and try something else.

Definately need to work on the 60's, there are gains to be made in that area, my car will go 1.40 flat in the 60, when the track is gooood, just so so, it will go 1.42's regularly, and my engine is no where near the engine you have, that would be where I would start looking for gains.

By the way, mine has the stock torsion bars, and those old junk comp engineering front shocks, so don't over think the front end.
