New to the LS world and needs help and any advice I can use to have a fast DD
Hey everyone I am a new to the L's world and I wanted to get some ideas from off here for my stock 2000 Z28 auto. This car will be my DD but I would also like for it to do good at the track. I am starting off with a tsp long tube headers and a magnaflow catless y-pipe from there I don't know where to go or what to get. I am open for all suggestions and any advice.

Well you have a lot to consider but buy another 4 banger for a dd and then mod the Z. Once you start playing with it the gas mileage is going away. What ever you do to your car it is going to need tuning, fuel upgrades to pump and injectors. Modding is a slope that once you get onto it is hard to stop. Having the car sit for weeks waiting for something is no big deal if it isn't your DD but it sucks when you need reliability.

From there I'd go with a LS6 or BBK SSI intake manifold, and a higher stall TC(3200 up to3600 rpm stall speed) for your transmission. Keep in mind that there's not dirt cheap short-cut to getting a quality high stall TC; Stick with a very reputable brand like a Circle D or a Yank Performance. I's also remember that the minimum TC stall speed recommended will depend on the aftermarket cam choice you will likely make in the not so distant future to Feed your Need for Speed!
