Hi I have a 90 fox body I have a 427 w 750 hp 7200 rpm at crack. Looking for someone here that has had a car like this and got it to hook up on the track. I need to know what tire size was used, what suspesion mods and brands and what rear end. I have looked at the wolfe craft mini tub kits and spoke with currie, moser, and strange about a 9". I have a cage but dont what to install until the rear suspesion is picked out. I am in the san diego area if anyone knows some one in this area that does this sort of thing

Please read the hyperlink article below. My setup uses everything stated in the article. See following:
275/60 – 15 TA radial
9” rear w/4.86’s
Tremec six speed, etc.
The rest of my setup is listed below

Making Your Mustang Hook, Part III

You didn’t state what tranny you are running, but with that amount of hp, I would go with an automatic with a high stall converter. I use Strange axles, but the others are good choices as well. My setup pulls the front wheels about 3ft high launching at 5000 rpm’s on the street as well as the track. Good luck.

thanks dudes this is what I am looking at doing. Mini tub kit that comes with a weld in cross bar to relocate the rear suspension. Put coil overs in and a 9in rear end. Got bids from moser, strange and currie. Currie being the most $$ strange and moser around the $2k range 35- 40 spline axles. I think it is $100 more for 40 spline.

I was a little worried about the relocation points the would need to be welded on to the rear end housing. I have never done this and dont want to screw it up. Has anyone ever used a mini tub kit from z motorsports or wolfe craft?
Can anyone suggest a coil over kit to use?
Also for the front, taking off the sway bar seems like a risk, is there any other way to do it maybe a smaller sway bar?
I am running alot of power in this car and just want it to hook up when I take it to the track. There is a race night at the local stadium right by my show every other friday night. its a bunch of guys with rice burners and a few real guys, but seeing how its a mile from where the car is, its a great place to practice launching and gettting the car set up
It is an auto c4 with trans brake it will be built by mikes transmissions
Can anyone give me an idea of what gears I would want for 1\8 mile and 1\4 mile not sure on tire size this would be another ? any where from 29.5 x 10.5 to 28 x 9 not sure what I will need to make her hook.
Thanks guys never built a drag car just always have had cars here is some I still own
