Default what mod next?

i promised myself i would not do anymore mods until i paid of my daily driver, but the mod bug is hitting me. what mod should i save up for next...im torn. moser 12 bolt, TNT 100 shot, or new heads. my goal for the car is 383 stroker w/ 100 shot. if i don't get the 12 bolt first, it will be the second to next mod. i never been to a track and probably will not get to one (but that could change). i have a gtech, so i sometimes will do a run with that. decisions, decisions. please offer some opinions to help me decide.

Go for the rearend first.

I'm at that point right now, got a 408 trex cam stroker with other goodies on a stock rearend, the only thing saving me (and holding me back from good track times) is that I'm still on crappy tires.

Get rear end first or you will end up having to buy new rear end anyways before you might be ready.
