Front Engine Dragsters / looking for ideas
« on: October 26, 2018, 04:00:31 PM »
bracket race fed fighting a hook and spin concern. lower hp 8.70sec 150mph car sbc carbureted 1520 lbs  with driver, pg with 1.80 first 4.11 rear gy 2585 on 12" wheel, launch at 4200 converter flashes 5500 shift at 7000 traps at 7300.  at our home track it will sixty mid 1.20s at good track it will sixty low 1.19s. my problem is during the day with some track temp it will hook and spin the tires quite consistently and go rounds but when we get to later rounds and things start to cool off its a crap shoot on hooking or not. I think our weight balance is pretty good, does not seem like the wb is unloading the tires, car always goes straight.  I know there are a ton more variables to this but do you guys see any red flags in this set up?

I bought a 2 1/2" OD drive line alignment bar thinking it would fit the main caps on my sbc.  It does not. What do I need to do? Thank you.
