That's fine. I actually got that handle from my Uncle who always used to say that...and I do like Van Halen (but not their biggest fan...LOL).
I totally understand where you are coming from, and I know first hand (my duster)that suspension is equally important in a drag car...I just prefer to help a guy out with what HE wants and then if I see problems in his combo I'll speak my mind. Then it's up to him to take the advice and check it out for himself.
I do agree that most guys look at the engine BEFORE they look at suspension/converter because it's more fun and easier. Plus I'm in the engine business, so it's good for me. That's not to say I would lead someone down the wrong road to make a buck...I only advise people when I'm sure about what I'm advising on...or pretty sure anyways.
Sorry to the OP for getting off track on this post. Hopefully you have enough info to make a good decision on where to go from here.
