While not as super cool as other stuff shown here, I did find a set of Dellorto filter tops at the swap meet on Friday.
I had to buy the guys whole box of random stuff to get them though, so they cost me $20...

But the real question I have is about rear alignment. I have 1/16 inch toe out.

Toe out in rear is bad. Get toe in, about same 1/16".

I really like your car, who makes those front wheels?  Cool
Up front, I race circuits not drag so not the same situation, but the adjustment methods are the same. I'd try to get your camber to 0 degrees and much closer on each side. If you have gone as far as you can go with the spring plate camber adjustment, you need a more radical solution. Over time a few people have made offset/eccentric inner IRS pivot bolts and a pair of these should let you dial in the camber. For the toe out problem, put the big washers on the outside side of the pivot bolt?  I like to run a touch of toe in, though for drag I think 0" should be good, as when you launch the pressure on the spring plate bushes will probably give you a touch of toe in. I find toe out makes the car 'twitchy'.
there is a fair bit of info here on setting camber using the 'smile - frown' method, moving the inner pivot box and eccentric pivot bolts:

Good Luck and keep up the great work

Okay I ended up with 26 inch slicks. Just purchased some close ratio 3rd and fourth gears hopefully get them put in this month. 1.56 and 1.17. But the real question I have is about rear alignment. I have 1/16 inch toe out. Question please answer. My rear camber is + 1 on left side and +2.25 on the right side is this acceptable. I went through the trouble to flip my control arms and narrow them almost 1 inch to getvrid of negative camber I also installed 28 mm torsion bars and adjustable spring plates. Everything is coming along nicely. I also built a clutch management device for clutch pedal.
