Also, How much does the car weigh? How high does the convertor stall if it's an automatic car?

It has alot of body roll to the right rear if the shocks arent set tight other than that it handle good. BUt the 60 foot are not good with a 1.65 being the best so far my old car was doing 1.50 with less power. Iam going to alchol in the next day or to. my instant center is just be low the shifter. When the car leaves it lifts the front wheels but then sets them right back down

My opinion, it needs the instant center moved out farther, it probably could stand some pre load put in the passenger side (not sure if it would be in the top bar or the bottom bar on that side), maybe even an inch or inch and a half of pre load stuck on the shock on that side to try and get it to quite rolling over. Plus, it sounds like the convertor is too tight.
