Default Just got done with mods....

Put on a set of longtubes, ory, stb, new shocks/struts, plug wires and plugs. The power down low seems like it took a little hit, is this normal? Across the board it feels a little smoother and stronger. I have plans to get her tuned within the next few weeks. How much more of a difference will this make? The stb definately made a difference in the handling.

I kept the same springs, didn't have all the cash for new ones yet. I went with tokico shocks and struts. Next step on the suspsension will be a panhard bar. I have new tires going on Friday. I also have a set of 243's, ls6 intake and cam a little later down the line.
