**Some thoughts of whats next - UMI lca, UMI phb, UMI lca relocation brackets, strano springs, trickflow ceramic coated intake elbow, electric WP, 52mm TB, 1.6 RR & springs, 3:73 gears, eventually a stall down the road, aerotech 50 gauges in one on the pillar (might be for good use down the road??)**

I would like some input as to what I should do next?

Thanks,

Devin

Stall and gears is a no brainer for an auto....especially if you have 2.73's in it.

Then cam and heads of course; perhaps a stroker crank too while your in there.

I'm a college student currently (money a little tight, but all the things u said I would love to do). How about I make a list here and see if you agree.

1)UMI lca
2) UMI phb
3) UMI lca relocation brackets
4) strano springs
5) trickflow ceramic coated intake elbow (resenator delete)
6) electric WP
7) 52mm TB
8) 1.6 RR & springs
9) 3:73 gears
10) eventually a stall down the road (which size tho?)

I would do gears, stall, lca and brackets. Will make world of difference.

I agree with everything on the list except for the 52mm TB....really not necessary for a stock LT1 bolt on car....it's not going to add any noticeable difference unless you have cam/heads already.

3200 is a pretty good stall converter for stock LT1.

I would get LCA, relcocation brackets and gears.

Should I go higher stall for IF I cam it? Thanks for the input, looks like a have a good "list".

Stall it first then later on you can cam it...35-3600 stall is good..

Upgrade your valvetrain when you swap in the cam. Rocker arms AND valve springs. If you know that you're going to do a cam swap, don't waste your money on a 52mm throttle body, just get a nice 58... AS&M, Holley, TPiS.
