To be any sort of competetive you'll want a built tranny, and EFI Live for tuning. There's lots of different classes, and what class your in can depend on lots of things, and it's not always the same from state to state, or between different pulling associations.

T-bars are part of the front suspension, they are what controls the height of the front suspension. You want to lower them down so that your halfshafts are level for best results. You'll also want centerlink braces as well. Spring clamps can be made easily and you'll want them.

I'm sure there's lots of other stuff, so just be patient and people will chime in. It may take a day or two, so just check back every once in a while.
