Damn, I run 11.20 @61 in the 1/8th with a stock KA24DE/5spd powered Frontier-and I have 210,000 miles! For traction, you need a LSD or a locker followed with at the very least, a good set of traction bars. You may also want to try putting some ballast in the bed(Got the old KA? It may still serve a function!
) My biggest concern however, would be the stock 2 piece driveshaft as it is not a good design for the dragstrip.
