Default Finally hit 14's

last year at the track i ran a 15.2 @ 90 on a 2.2 60'.
I had and h23 with intake
this year i put an obx header and 2.25'' exhaust and am running 14.5 @ 95 with a 2.3 60'....loving it a lot more now...
any suggestions on what i should do next to my engine?? I just wanted to get some peoples opinions, because you all know more than i do and know more products.

you need to work on your "launch" skills... 2.3 is horrible...

get some slicks and work on getting your 60' down to a 1.9 or faster, and you'll be golden for a 13. great to see people still using the h23.

look into some good cams and headwork, if you wanna do the bottom end, sleeve and maybe some type-s or higher c.r. pistons then stock.

thanx guys...i've been thinking of going all motor now...i thought of boost but i like the fact of an all motor h23...i'm goin to stick with it for a while.
The tire's i'm running are Warrior tires they were only 35$ a piece and the wheels are steelies.
I got the wheels off a friend because i had 13" wheels and i wanted 14" wheels. I want to get wheels sooner or later but i'd rather go fast first!
I think i should prob invest in a good tire and get a better header.
