Setting up my suspension

Hey all, I posted in the Performance and Race section and it's pretty much crickets over there. I have a 70 c10 LWB truck and I built a pretty stout 355 and put a mini spool with 3.73's in it. Also just did a Holeshot 3000 converter which I'm really diggin. After I installed the mini spool I started noticing a bit of wheel hop once I get the tires spinning. This is a purely for fun truck, hence the mini spool, and I'd love to take it to the drag strip and get into the high 12's (for starters lol 12's won't be good enough once I get there) The suspension is 100% stock right now front and rear, and has NO sway bar in the front which kinda drives like a boat in the water. I'm not looking for a road race type handling but id like to improve the driveability, lower and level it a little without spindles, and get the wheel hop to go away and launch hard at the track. What are you 1/4 mile guys running? I'm limited to bolt on for now btw.

Matt
