need more grip

I have a few 70's era fords in my yard but my most recent is a 77 f150 2wd with a 460 it has a flat bed and a 50 gallon fuel cell behind the rear axil. I have 33/12.50 coopers on it and the built 460 still turns the tires over with a full tank of fuel. I want to turn this truck into a pull truck but I would like some advise on how too pull right and maybe get some traction.
