Default picking parts

well I'm trying to put together a parts list to start buying slowly so in about 5-6 months i can install it all at once. So far my list consists of mti lid, pacesetters and tsp duals. As for the cam and heads I'm not real sure. I'm thinking maybe the TSP stage 2.5 kit with the magic stick 3 cam. Hows that sounding so far. My car already has the ls6 intake so i don't think i will need to upgrade that anytime soon. Plus like i said i might just have to through a 100 shot on it for kicks and giggles. im looking to get around 450 hp and 500 torque. i looked on the patriot site and saw a link to an articale in chp where they installe a " patriot performance pacage" but i couldn't find any real specs on it. if anyone can give me some info it would be great. thanks jeremy

What are your plans for the car? Daily driver or track car.
I would through gears and new rear end in the mix...

yea im planning on some 3:732 and a 12 bolt. the car is going to be really more of a street car and cruiser, but im sure it will see the track at least 3-4 times a year.

Im going with the G5X3 cam and some patriot heads in a few weeks. I looked at the TSP packages too but decided on the other cam instead. The M3 with heads seems to put good numbers though
