sounds like you need a crew chief. chris alston wrote a book on chassis set up, never read it, but i hear it's good. dave emanual wrote on on holleys, it'd apply basically to the demon too. any older manual would tell you how to run the valves. few things you can look at on the chassis is ride height, alignment, and set the pinion angle.

A crew cheif? Nope, I just need to learn this stuff myself, but it seems finding out where to learn it at is a secret.......
Appreciate those tips though, and will follow those leeds!

Car: too many ...
The parts you mentioned (adjustable LCA's, Panhard, Etc) are for adjusting your suspension after you lower the car. After installing drop springs (like you did) the car might lean a little bit one way. The adjustable pieces you bought are meant to be adjusted to even/level the car out. I'm sure a good alignment shop can do it for you (if you know anyone in SCCA goto their allignment specialist). As long as your having someone adjust the pieces (and since you'll need a realignment anyway) I would recommend you ask them to do any Camber/Caster changes you might want depending on your application. Then have it realigned.
To strengthen your chassis you need to look into parts like Subframe Connectors, Lower Chassis Support, and Steering Box Frame Support (Global West makes all these parts). Ultimate chassis strengthening would be a rollcage (welded).
As far as the engine ... I got no idea!!
