I don’t know anyone offering prints for a 140” car I know Tuttle use to offer prints for a 185” car you may have to get some drawings and modify them to suit your desire.  No matter what ET you plan on running I would purchase the SFI 2.6A specs good for 7.50 and slower.  If you ever had desire to go quicker than that 2.4C is 6.0 to 7.49

I changed my car from 28 to 15 degrees as per recommendation from Frank Parks and my car drive like a dream went 212MPH.  My car drove good at 28 but was a bitch turning off at the top end. 

Have you checked your king pins and heim joints for slop?
