since i got my converter put in i went to the track and couldnt launch at anything more than 2500. i still got bad spin all night my question is should i just go ahead and buy lsd, posi, or buy a good set of drag slicks. eventually i will get slicks and a trans am rear end. but i want to get out with as little money as possible right now for the most gain.

I'm pretty sure a zexel torsen LSD is 99 bux
thats pretty cheap

either get the SLP LSD cuz of the cost, or get an auburn LSD for the extra traction u'll get from that 1 over the standard LSD. then get drag radials later, if u still need them. honestly, u probly won't need them if u set up ur rear suspension w/ the right mods.2001 Arctic White Firebird<br />More mods than I\'m allowed to list!

So, you have an open rear now?
Well, if you have drum brakes then buy a replacement V8 rear with disc brakes, lsd, and bigger rear sway bar.
If you already have rear disc's then get the slp $99 lsd unitRace car - gone but not forgotten - 1997 firebird V6

With an LSD, and the correct suspension setup. You should be able to launch on stock tires, or stock width tires with great results.
However, posi, a suspension to put it to the ground, and a set of SS/WS6 wheels with a sticky street set of 275's or 285's will probably be all you need for your level of modification.<b>15.41</b> @ 89.80 & 15.45 @ <b>91.64</b>, 2.21 60ft, 3,440 raceweight, using <b>OEM</b> Equipment. <br />\'98 L67/M49 w/ 134,000 miles before spun bearing. \"<i>It\'s all stock, Baby</i>!\"
