Properly set up, stock style 3 link is good for 1.2x 60' at least. No need to go to a ladder bar setup. We setup a car last week for a local guy and in the heat he was cutting 1.31's on drag radials. 9.4x street car 
He went to the Pump Gas Drags and came home with the Most Legit Street Car award

wow.
Thanks to bmonte and shagwell, that's awesome info guys!
I've got a lot of learning left to do about instant center and center of gravity and suspension theory... whew!
Maybe i'll get that book by carroll shelby, any direct 3rd gen info in it? (ie torque arm setups?)
maybe i'll just re-read some of deans old posts
