Motor sounds like a strong combo, and looks great....nice job detailing it out!! As for traction...of course tire choice is going to be the major thing. You might want to try a set of bolt on shocks such as these:

....they're not just for off road trucks (They have some universal sizes and such for trucks that have been lowered, but this particular part# is for stock 2wd) I know a couple of guys had altered their shock mounts to run the QA1's, but believe it or not, these shocks from Rancho are very adjustable and work very well helping weight transfer.

Thanks man. I was wanting to keep my Denali alternator, but I guess I'll get an upgraded F-car alternator.
