What to do next....
I have about $1500 or so I've got to spend on the camaro and can't really decide on what I want to do next..
This is all thats going through my head..
Save for new rear
Get some zr1 rims or something similar
New catback
MGW short throw
52mm TB
100 Shot (dunno what to think about spray though)
Suspension is stock at the moment and so are the exterior looks..
Any suggestions are appreciated cuz I can never make up my mind and need some fellow lt1 input!!

You can't go wrong with a new rear! If you don't want to save that much I suggest buying some suspension stuff, TA, LCA's, PHB, Shocks etc. It looks like you've got several things already done to the engine, now work on getting the most out of it! It's been my experiance that it's better to build the car for the engine not the other way around!

Send your intake to Lloyd for a port job
58mm T.B.
Suspension: Torque Arm, Panhard Bar and some SFC's (You will notice a nice change in how the car handles and feels with these)
You will still have some cash left over as well so maybe some new wheels or save the extra money for a rainy day when and if your rear does go south. I'm in the mix of selling my ZR'1s so if you decide to go that route "PM" me and we can talk. Good luck.

Well I was going back and forth with rims/tires and rear end now I'm thinking more on the route of either saving for the rear or going suspension route.. where is a good place to look at suspension parts for decent price I've never bought suspension for any vehicle yet haha.

If ya do suspension, do it here at home.I see you are here in central Ill. http://www.midwestchassis.com/ Eric is a site sponsor here and is located here in North Pekin. You also have http://www.burkhartchassis.com/ which is also a site sponsor and is located in Decatur. Both make some of there own suspension pieces specifically for our F-body cars.
I would have to say a rearend is the inferior stock component(weaklink) that needs to be replaced before you break first off.
