Too cut or not to cut?

I have run 11.50's at 118 mph on super stock springs and 275/60-15 tires. Right now I am dialing in a new set of drag radials, but my slicks were similar in size. No cutting or spring relocation was necessary. When I switched to big bolt pattern axles I had to roll the fender lips a bit. You would have a problem mini tubbing a fastback and retaining the fold down rear seat and side panels anyway.
