That's what I thought. Its actually worse from sitting most of its life instead of traveling how its meant to. All the weight of the car squashing the suspension constantly just squashes it. Your rear springs are probably sagging and a lot lower looking then the front. Start doing some launches and it starts getting lower lol. I got a full suspension setup out of a junkyard for 100 bucks so I'm all set just gonna get some WS6 rear springs and should be a good setup. Like everyone said its not all about going gung-hoe on the motor, the stock motor can do a lot of work if the rest of the car is set up right for it. Try to focus on simplifying the car and getting power to the ground. Just look at Tony's bolt on only 95 running 12.3s. and watch what I can do in the spring I'll have the suspension and essentially full bolt ons everything but engine and tranny mods.
