You might need to get a couple of books, try the Mopar
Chassis book for the front end and Door Slammers or
Bickles chassis book for the rear set up

Chris Alston has a chassis manual, if you can find one.

I am not a drag racer, but ended up with one of those...it shows copyright 1985. No idea how out of date the stuff in it would be ?
Oh, and got the Alston catalog and dot-matrix-printed price list in it too even

I picked up the Rick Jones book at the IMIS show from them. Puts most of the stuff in laymans terms. Highly recomend!!!
