Default keeping myself busy

if/when i get an M6 LS1 f-body, im planning on doing a few things to it, unless its already modded.

lid/LT's/Xpipe/dynomax 18" bullets
LS6 heads with an MS4 or T-rex cam
12 bolt with 3.90's.


how does that sound so far?

Sounds good if you have five grand to spend after the purchase of the car.

If you get a 99 be sure and pick up a new intake. Also, why not 4.10s? They are a blast in a M6!

i have 4.10's and i dont really like em. cant use the freeway much.

3.90 will be good, in between 3.73 and 4.10. i wanted to get 3.90 for my 10 bolt, but they didnt have them out yet so i got 4.10

Sounds good, but an LS1 for $5,000 sounds like its gonna have a lot of miles.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but if you get a huge cam like T Rex and heads, won't you need new injectors to handle it? Will intake manifold and T/B be a big restriction at that point? (upgrade to FAST + 90mm?)
