Raffa.... You need to check the Total Octane... Not just the advertised Octane rating.... But if you use it and not have any detonation you will be fine. Keep a good eye on the plug reading...

That thing is coming along nicely.
There are some high 8 sec cars with that mph.
I think there are possibly some gains yet to be made.
What is your : Launch rpm
Torque Converter flash rpm
Maximum engine torque rpm
Maximum engine horsepower rpm
Trap rpm
That 60 ft might have room for improvement?

That should knock about 300 RPM off it........
I dont see 7300 Being a problem as long as the motor is still working up there.
But if your just looking to knock a few RPMs off the top... Then try the tire change.
But Some times, if this has not been a problem before? "Climbing in RPM" this could be the result of the Converter slippage....
Question:.... Still has the 4.10 Rear Gear? and still running down in the 9.80 range?

Have you considered going with a radial slick.
The ones noted work well on a 10" rim into the low 8's in Stock Eliminator and they should fit your car easily.

Going through some slips and I note a BS/A leaf spring Camaro at 1.337 - 60ft.
I would have to research it, but I believe there is a 1964 CC/SA 3800 lb Plymouth here in Div 6 that would be very close to me (60 ft and et.) as he has run with me.
