Default I need advice!

Ok i got a 160k on my suspsion and it feels like it all stock to the T, only mods are LTs and duals and lid, but i've been really itching for a yank 4k stall now I plan on maybe porting the stock heads and caming it soon but I'm also on a budget and i'm looking for quality. Should I beef up the suspison first before I do any kinda engine/tranny mods or should I just say f it and get the converter? Now I'm playing on spending a good grip within the next 2 months maybe like 1300 bucks, I'm really trying to do things right so I won't kick my self in the *** later.

You can go either way. Do the stall first if you want to see instant results and numbers, but you need to match the stall with your future set up. If you do suspension now, you will have a solid foundation to build on for your later set-up.
