Default next step

Ok guys, looking for next steps.

I have 1971 Camaro weighs about 3500lbs right now. 26.5" high rear tire. 3.31 rear gear. Beefed up 4L60e w/ Monster 2600-2800 stall converter. I have tall upper ball joints up front for better camber and the rear has a 10bolt with traction bars.

I will address suspension more in the next 3 months.

Currently motor is out of my car, so I am looking for next steps in the powertrain.
2004 LQ4 with BTM stage 3 Cam, LS6 valve springs, LS7 Lifters, LS9 Headgasket. I sprung for TFR GenX220 (for LS2) Heads, Yella Terra ultralight non-adjustable roller rocker arms and chrome molly pushrods for correct length. I have a factory LS6 intake, injectors, TB, etc... The fuel pump is in the tank, I purchased a holly sniper with 255 fuel tank. And I have the hooker super comp headers that fit my car.

it has a tune in it right now that appears to be good. What would be the next steps.. I was thinking I need to bump my injectors up to flow more, but I am not sure the fuel pump in the holly sniper fuel tank will be able to keep up. whats my next steps? or where did I go wrong. Motor at builders shop right now being put back together.

FYI I got the motor, cam, intake, etc at no-lift motorsports.

Honestly, I drive it in the evenings and on weekends. when I drive it, I want everyone to look at my car, and I want to taunt other car's I see on the road. I also want to open the electric exhaust dumps when someone with an extremely loud stereo system is beside me and drown them out with a few open exhaust rev's.


Oh, I also want to go fast!

I know nothing about the holy sniper pump, but a 255 pump in general should easily support what you're planning. Besides the proper accessories with the heads and cam upgrade you'll probably wanna change spark plugs and maybe injectors too.
