i've been doing a lot of thinking about the direction i want to go with for my car...i think this is going to be the course of action

2002 SS M6
loudmouth-already installed
SLP lid/Holley filter-already installed
lou's short throw-already installed
!cags-already installed
SSRA
FLP headers/ypipe
Weld Pro Star 15x10's
26.5x11.5 MT Drags
Moser 12 bolt w/3.90's (just in case i want to boost or spray some day)
Cam: .224/.224 .563 114
Heads: Stage 2 RGR from Speed Inc.
new springs/retainers/pushrods
some weight loss


then maybe i'll add:
Star Stage 3 clutch
throttle body

appearance mods will include:
new grill
tint
chrome SS 10 spokes
pro kit

i've already totaled the amount, and it makes me sad but hopefully i'll have a strong, somewhat daily driveable car that will run some good numbers and pass emissions.

any suggestions/comments?

 

might wanna bump the clutch up on the mod list,,,

more of a priority!

 

the clutch was going to be sort of a "break it when it fails" type deal

 

ok you do all that work, take it out to have some fun on your MT ET's

and before you get home your clutch is gonna be gone..

then youll be out of a car again.....

its your car though

oh and your car already has an LS6 intake, so you can scratch that.

 

yeah i knew that, i was on crack

 

sounds like a stout setup just do the clutch the first while the car is down so you dont have to burn out the clutch then replace it.

 

true true, it's only another few hundred $$$ anyway.

Hopefully it'll pass emissions!

 

as long as you have cats it should, the tr224 114 has passed cali smog and if it passed that it'll pass anything.

 

yeah, i'll have the cats on..that was one of the main reasons I am going with the FLP's.

Have you run your car yet? what kind of et's are you seeing?

 

Sounds good..

 

im in the middle of a head swap and havent got the car tuned properly yet so the dyno and track times will come a little later. im expecting good things on the dyno and so-so for the track, it'll be my first time
