My advice would be to not buy anymore $200 mods for a while and save up for a stroker kit and than turbo it at the same time.

But if you need some power go NOS.

Seriously Kory,

I am not going to put up with those remarks. If you want be an ass about it I would rather you not post. He is asking an honest legit qustion and you pretty much gave him the classic old school DSM remark with no fundamental backing or reasons why you would think this way. Pretty lame.

The first question is what do you really want in the end? What is your final goal and your situation and what can you afford to do?

The stroker kit is being developed by Howell right now. I think there is a thread about it. Take a look at that. From looking through your mod list you said you're gonna put on your springs soon. Might want to look for some nice aftermarket shocks to go with them. Also, an afc might be nice because you can use it a turbo or if you go all motor. Just some suggestions I'd thought I throw out.
