Default Stall and Longtubes

I just installed my pacesetter longtubes and have dropped my transmission and replaced my converter with an EDGE 3400 2.4 STR. I also deleted my a/c. Due to my job I cant seem to get the time to finish everything. I was just wondering how much of a difference the new mods will make.

Pretty large difference at the track and a very noticible difference in normal driving, sound, and acceleration. It will basically be a whole new car and for the better. With some DR's the LT's and Stall could cut your times by a good .6-.8 tenths I would think.

it doesnt really free up any hp unless your actual using the A/C which obviously will put a load on the engine while its running. you lose a little bit of weight but nothing drastic.

My next project is a cam ,springs and 1.6 rockers. I was planning a cc 503 cam and pro mag rockers. I want the cam for sure but was wondering if gears would help more than the rockers. I am more interested in seat of the pants & 1/4 mile improvement not dyno numbers.
