Default What next?

Ok guys, here is a list of my current mods but what should I do next? I have a '98 Z28 with a zero mile 6.0 longblock with my Ls1 intake and TB. I have a TurboTech stage 1 kit and some 38# injectors which arent installed. I have a new Spec genII stage 4 clutch kit. Beefed up tranny. Nothing else...Any ideas would be greatly appreciated and well considered. Thanks.
-Mike

12 bolt or 9" <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />

I'm guessing it's a stock 6.0L longblock? CR should be what, 9:1 maybe 9.5:1?

That'll be good for boost and pump gas. But don't get greedy on boost without a close eye on detonation.

Get thee a good intank or inline fuel pump, walbro 255 l/hr comes to mind. And a copy of LS1 edit.

the 38's will get you close to 500 rwhp, but not more. Find some 42's if you want to go over that.

Well get the ls6 intake. You could port your heads. are they the 5.7's or 6.0 (6.0 rock flow wise) what cam you got in there? What turbo? did you get it tuned yet? did you put forged pistons in there?
Fuel regulator will help out.

how much power do you realy want to make?
