Yea, I know that last time I did that I didn't get to the real car until 2 years later! Oh well I can just do small things here and there, I think a new rear, LS1 brakes, and BMR stuff is prolly gonna be first. Then I can think about putting some more power down.

I did the rear first! The only bad thing with your budget the heads and cam would eat up close to $2000 and over with a tune and thats with you installing the parts. The rear is a good $2000 and the suspension parts will add up quick. Keep an eye on the forsale forums for used stuff you could save a good bit for other parts!

Well I would like to keep some miles off of it, it needs a new rear pretty badly b/c I've launched it hard more than a few times and it's screaming at me now. I might pick up a beater for like a grand, get a new rear, pick up some suspension stuff (k-member, a-arms, tq arm, etc...), then save for an LE3x383 combo.
Your all over the place, change the rear end since its giving you problems already

I had a good clutch and it only lasted me a year. At my current power level I'm ok for another 2 years on the one I have, I'm just waiting for some more things to come along before I go redoing the clutch for the 3rd time.
