Murphy's Law

Okay so went to the track last weekend after major upgrades to the rear end in an attempt to dial it in (set loads). She won't launch.. .1.70, 1.80 sixty foots, this after running a best of 1.30 before the upgrades????? Oh the upgrades...anti-roll bar, double reinforced four link at chassis, full halo (certified 8.50) and wheelie bars. Got her home, opened the valve covers and found she had dropped 1 rocker on each side (intake!) with 2 others severely loose. Problem.. .no stud girdles!!!! Remedy. .installed stud girdles. Back to track this weekend, weather permitting. Looking to get back in the mid-5's. Have video camera and will post runs on link.
