Drag racing setup

Ready for the strip.
Axles are almost parallel to the ground. Going to raise the rear even more to get them perfectly parallel for maximum strength. Im pretty happy with this fitment for such a big tire on a stock fender
Im honestly scared to ride out 4th gear in this thing. If it making the power i think its making, it should trap over 125. The top of 3rd (~90mph) already scares me. Wish me luck ??

The shock rod itself may be "topping out"
the easiest way to get more height (assuming the above is what's happening) would be to buy a pair of shock spacers and put them on.

Very impressive. I just went to the dragstrip for the first time in my life last Wednesday. I got a 13.08 @ 122mph. Pretty happy with it. I've got to figure out the wheel hop at the start, had a horrible 2.7second 60'. I'm pulling the diff to get solid mounts this weekend. At this hp level I'd predict to be in the 12s for sure. Just suck at the launch..
Here's a question - I'm running 27psi boost and my MAT goes from 100F to 180F during the run. Is that excessive? Risky? I'm running the FM intercooler.

Wheel hop fix takes a lot, I had to make several changes to fix that.

Also when you get it sorted out and make some passes please post your times and setup required to achieve those times on my thread titled " post your 1/8th and 1/4 mile times". I figured if people would post there times and setups in one place it will be easier for people to find and see what works and what doesn't.
