Ok had a rough week but changed my front springs,loaded up and went to Famoso. Left the front shocks as they were. Full loose on extension, rear shocks were set at 3 which is in the middle. Slicks set at 12lbs. Got only one run and was the best yet but again it spun. The hit was with the brake and 3400 chip. That was the tenth run on all the new changes and creeping forward but the car will not rotate. It's comes up and as soon as it starts to pull the front, it starts spinning. I couldn't stick around because I was supposed to be at my wife's birthday so I attempted a second run but the car died on the line and didn't refire.r really feel like scrapping the high dollar front end and going back to stock

I've been following this thread for a while now. Cause I'm having similar problems(transferring weight)talk to Bob about a month ago and he recommend sending in the shocks for revalveing. Hope this works for me one thing I will say bout this setup is it makes pulling the pan/headers easy and it goes straight. I had a best of 1.29 this year with this setup and that's with the shocks set full loose it still seems to tight for me. My plans over the winter is to pull the shocks and send them out.

I would agree to tighten up the front. The rear may need a better shock or increased rear valving. Video is always best
