Default Which One.....

Are the coated long tubes worth $800? Or should i get the LS6 heads from Texas Speed? Is the price on their site $899 for the pair? I tired contacting them but no luck. Any other mod recs will be appreciated. The stall is out for now because i have a high milage tranny. These are ny options:

1. Long tubes...coated or uncoated
2. LS6 Heads
3. UD Pulley
4. LS6 Intake
5. Shaner TB
6. Shocks and Struts w/panhard
7. Cheater Cam or G2 cam

1. Long tubes...coated or uncoated....pacesetters 400 coated, xs stainless 350
2. LS6 Heads....do these later along with the cam, get them ported with good springs
3. UD Pulley....also do later, not worth the hassle for what you get right now
4. LS6 Intake....350, good upgrade, easier then the freakin pulley to do....worth it
5. Shaner TB.....port your own or send it to me
6. Shocks and Struts w/panhard......veryyyy good upgrade, set of bilsteins for 350
7. Cheater Cam or G2 cam.....see number 2, lots of work, lots of money
