HEY,
I AM JUST GETTING INTO THE HOT ROD RACING STUFF.I JUST RECENTLY BOUGHT ME A 1995 S10 WITH A 350 BOARDED TO A 355 IN IT.IT HAS 4/11 REAR END,WITH A 350 TURBO TRANSMISSION IN IT.I TOOK IT TO THE TRACK LAST WEEK FIRST RUN9.3 SECOND 9.8.I AM HAVING TROUBLE WITH WHEEL HOP REALLY BAD.IVE BEEN TOLD THE TRUCK HAS RAN 8.1 WITH THE OLD OWNER, BUT I AM HAVING PROBLEMS WITH THE HOP.IT IS ALSO ONLY REVVING TO 3300 RPM AND THEN IT BACKFIRES AND SPUTTERS REALLY BAD.DIDNT HAVE THE PROBLEM BEFORE THE TRACK BUT NOW I DO.ANYWAY IM NARROWING IT DOWN FAST THOUGH.ANY SUGGESTIONS JUST LET ME KNOW.

Valve springs yes and rear suspension or mods to harden it up. Back end is probably compressing too much.
www.s10forums.com has a lot of info on there and a lot of people in there with s10s fixed up for drag racing.
Hope this helped.
