Objective and Goals For '02 -- Any Comments? '01 was focused on HP and E/T's. I'm planning on concentrating in '02 on consistency, safety and 60ft's. Current mods are in my sig. I plan on doing the following:
- Jan: Upgrading my Vig from 2800 to 3200
- Feb: Installing my new DTS rear-end with 3.73's
- Feb: HD Driveshaft
- Spring: Cage and 5-pt belts
- Summer: Hal front shocks and springs
- When/if needed: Moving to 15" E/T Streets
- Fall/Winter: New Trans (Yank Pro Sportsman or maybe a Jet 4L80E)
It's tempting to keep the HP route going (Stage II heads and an ATI ProCharger are my next range of power options) but I think this is a better way to go. Then, keeping with a safety oriented upgrade path, I will do a rebuit short-block in '03 along with Stage II heads. Then and only then will I add the ProCharger.
What do you think? Not the most exciting upgrades but it should keep everything relatively in tact and the strength to handle the HP when I do get it.
