the front suspension plays a big part with cal tracs.90/10 shocks moroso springs,not stock springs or heavy road race springs,battery in the trunk etc.front end lift on launch is really important for them to work.also roller bearing spring perches,every thing works together for wieght transfer.also if you have iron heads and placment of the engine fore and aft makes an impact.

the stock boss intake is a dual plane and kills hp.if you had room,the kaase intake is a big improvement.that said,and better cam and headers added 100 hp to other wise stock boss engines.dick serdinak from ohio had a nhra stocker he ran,and went 10.70s with full weight car,and engine was not fully built for the class.back in the day lol.

after watching these videos i feel so stupid.no doubt these are high end race engines,and some of this can be applied to what we do without the cost of testing.cam lobe profiles make a huge impact on power and rpm.and it seems the closing ramps are very critical to valve bounce! its long videos but well worth a look.

Has anyone had any experience with Artifiberglass products?  They have a diverse line of hoods and such.
