Well, a 2:73 gear and 28s is whats killing your 60'. Thats dropping down even lower so a stock motor just doesnt have the power to pull through that lower gear out of the hole. Id think a higher stall may help a little, but nitrous def should. Im not a nitrous guy and im new to the auto thing so maybe someone can help more.

okay so i sent back to the track and made some minor changes ... first off i took out most of the inside of the car at the track last time because RACECAR and did a best of 13.836@ 101.82 so ... the changes i have made are i put my x pipe setup off the 1995 formula under the 1994 so i added all the weight back that i took out of the inside. i also installed some sphon adjustable LCA's. so i went to the track expecting 14.0's. last time at the track i had ~20psi in the 28" tires i got to the track and started with about 18psi and just like i thought ... about .2 slower from the weight. but my 60" was a smidge better so i aired the tire down more to 15psi and then something cool happens ...
R/T ... .024
60' ... 2.151
330 ... 5.956
1/8 ... 9.018
MPH ... 78.78
1000 ... 11.623
1/4 ... 13.802
MPH ... 103.55
so i set a new fastest pass in the car on the second pass of the night. very happy at that point. but it gets better. so i get back to the staging and was going to hot lap but fast cars were about to go so re-pep the track ment wait time so the car got its cool down time ... and i also dropped the tires to 13psi to see what that did. and
R/T ... .078
60' ... 2.153
330 ... 5.933
1/8 ... 9.007
MPH ... 78.69
1000 ... 11.601
1/4 ... 13.790
MPH ... 101.29
again a new fastest pass in the car. so i decided to end on a good note and call it a night. but i am VERY VERY happy to be running 13.7 in a car with just full exhaust.
