Even a Detroit Locker and full slicks are not going to stick with a 2500lb. car, 3.55 rear, and almost 600 ft/lbs of torque. It just ain't gonna happen. You could "de-tune" your engine a little by using a heavier spring to delay the vacuum secondaries a bit, and maybe a tad bit less timing. But what you have is simply "the nature of the beast."
