ok. So I installed a 3000 stall converter in my car last year and now I can't keep the tires from turning loose.. So my question....will a taller set of tires help reduce the tire spin and also improve 1/4 Mile considering I can't keep them from spinning at full throttle. Before the stall swap it launched pretty nice at wOT and the tires are plenty wide. Guessing I am 430hp and should be doing 12 in the 1/4 mile but I was 13.5 last year because my stall was only a 1100 and the launch was poor for the power I had. Any thoughts so I don't go spend endless amounts of money figuring out which direction to go . The comp Dyno sheet had me at 430 hp with Specs bellow.

Tires slicks, drag radials, street tires? Gear ratio and posi or one wheel wonder? And last what trans are you running. Those would help with your question.

 

Welcome, Todd, to the club.
Adding to the above post, gear ratios multiply torque and so do torque converters.
Yes, going to a larger diameter tire may reduce slippage.
Also, traction devices help prevent slippage.
If choosing a slapped bar type device, get the one hitting the front spring eye verses hitting the spring as this puts more stress on the spring and can break the spring.

 

ilike to weld in a little xbrace between the rear leaf spring mounts-or actually on the drop bars ihave drop bars. keeps from bending all over the dang place just film it sometime you would be surprised , appears moves inches independently of each other. improves traction to straighten em permanently after tuning. dont get a slapper bar- get a torque arm bar with a spherical rod end to prevent axle housing roll. or build you some fierce low profile slapper bars that touch the spring eye toward front of vehicle. if you really want good build a tubular truck arm suspension and put coil springs on it. build the shock mounts on the housing and have more tire in board with mini tubs and/or outboard by modifying the wheel house exterior. then why not a 15x12 wheel or 17x12 etc. or a 15x15 , 18x14?etc.
