I've watched the videos in slow mo countless times and have a handle on whats wrong but your suggestion of upping tyre pressure is worth trying, those 90/10's gotta go for some adjustable's to slow the front down, biggest issue, we'll try 18psi and see how that goes, getting into radial tyre pressures here but worth a shot. I can see where your going with lowering front end but its the rear we need to lower really I reckon, and we'll take a run@the verter just off idle and see rather than load it, may be running out of rear travel as well but thats easily sorted.

So what do you think needs to be done?

It's wadding up and driving over the tire, IMHO two ways to fix it, control the pitch rotation (shocks) and air pressure. If it takes 20 psi to keep it from driving over the tires what does it matter? Also a car that heavy should be running a stiff sidewall slick, other wise it will kill the sidewall in short order. I don't understand only 3" of travel in the front, it's not hard to get 5" of travel with stock torsion bars unless they are really jacked up. The 60' is way off, my Dart with a 340 ran 11.60 with a 1.52 60'.
