springs to help with traction? Weird question..

Hey guys I am on the quest for goot traction and I know the ket is weight transfer, Now I have Lakewood lca's, edelbrock panahard, no front swaybar, and skinnies, And with drag radials it was hooking real good. But see on the street from ever a rol just punching it I will melt 1st,2nd, and somtimes a little of third. So I got some 90/10 dragstruts and put them on the other day and they made a tiny difference, nothings big. Well heres my question now that you know what I'm working with, I have th ws6 package and it has the stock springs, now I was gonna go to the junk yard and get some high milage v-6 rear springs and throw them in the back to help it squat more. But they i started thinking about the front springs and would it be worth it to buy the moroso's? the way i see it is you want a real stiff spring in the front so it pushes the car up right?? well please correct me if i'm wrong. thanks so much guys..

try out the rear v6 springs and go from there, much cheaper than the eibach drag launch kit i bought and then took right off.

yeah u want maxium weight distribution from front to rear for traction.
