I'm not so sure that was your only problem.

With the rake on your car, your IC couldn't be in a "nice/friendy" place.
What was your pinion angle?
What arms?
What shocks?
What springs?
Your launch just didn't look right.
Just trying to help.:rock:

your right the car hooks horrible,its already been a 1.38 60ft.

I know how to make a fox work.

the pinion angle is correct,it leaves straight and wheels up every pass.it looks funny in the video because it went about 1 foot before it broke all the driveshaft bolts.

as far as parts and angle

solid bushings in the rear end housing

southside lowers,adjustable uppers,all with poly bushings,moroso springs,lakewood shocks
pinion angle is 3 degrees down from crankshaft centerline.Rear lower bar angle is 6 degrees from earth point up in the front for a ic right about the front of the driver seat.Car scales at 2680 with me in it and makes about 450whp on a 73 nitrous jet on a cheater plate on 27 degrees of timing on pump piss 91 octane and a very good nitrous grind camshaft.The car works street or track in this setup with no nitrous controller.Im going to have to guess i did something right,as this isnt my first fox body ive built and drag raced.

With a 150? LOL...........OK!

Like I said at the end........JUST TRYING TO HELP.:nonono:

I do know just a little bit about most every suspension out there, not just Moostangs.:rofl:
I set up a little fox with a 250 shot on a plate with no controller(dang dummy) last week and he popped off a 8.90 on the first hit with a 1.26 60ft with a 9in wheelie(after extension) for the first 90 ft or so............that would mean the 60 was on the REAR tires.
Kids these days, I swear!:rofl::rofl::rofl:
