help me spend $2k
I have about 2000 dollars ready to go into the car but ive been going nuts tryin to decide what to buy next. my current mods are in my sig... i dont know if i wanna go with more power, wheels, suspension, built tranny or rear end! when i spend this much money i wanna be curtain thats what i want, like many of you im not rich, mommy and daddy do not buy my things, i work night shift 12 hours a night usually 6 days a week so my money is hard earned...so i need help from some of my ls1 brothers to set me in the right direction. Im leaning towards an FLT transmission and when income tax gets here a 9" rear-end..but a set of wheels or H/C combo is sounding nice as well

Its tough to give you advice, in your post you want to know what we think, but also want to spend on something YOU know is the right thing. Do lots of research, do what looks like the best thing and see if you like it. i personally would want to go faster, but if you want wheels, get some nice wheels. You really can't go wrong when spending money on your f-body. Find out whats possible with 2k, but together some combinations of stuff, then make an educated decision based on what you want from your car.

I don't see it in your current list of mods so I would get a stall converter for sure. I'm partial to the Yank SS4000. With that alone and some good tires you should drop a good half second or more off your current times.

I have a bridge I'll sell you that just happens to be $2k. Just kidding. Personally, my choice would be more power. But then if you have more power you'll want a built rear end or tranny. Choices, choices.
