Anyway, once you get the exhaust done, it really depends on how you like building cars. Personally I prefer to start with the foundation and go up. I'd start with suspension. LCA's, relocation brackets, a TQ arm, panhard rod, then move to the front and go tubular. You'd be surprised what a stock car does when the suspension works right. While you're at it, make sure your brakes are up to par....maybe even consider a hydraboost swap if you're going to get radical with the cam. Then go with the trans. Get a converter and maybe a fresh rebuild (depends on how yours is working and how the fluid looks...). Then you can start working on power production. Since you'll have the exhaust already, start with the front of the engine. With you're mileage you should be able to do a head/cam deal without any real worries. Consider an alt relocation kit if you wanna ditch the A/C, or call Larry and get one of their nifty setups. Then order up some heads and a cam, along with requisite gaskets, seals, and some new lifters (just to be safe). Don't forget rockers as the stock ones suck for power. Then slap it all on with a CAI and a 52mm TB and you'll have a great pavement pounding DD. At this point....buy a new DD. You'll only be shooting yourself in the foot if you beat it up and break it and can't get to school. Then yank the motor out and go to town and build whatever you'd like....then save for the rear....I always leave that for last cause I like watching rearends shoot ring gear teeth out of the cover......makes for a mess on the road, but it also gives you a great souvenir in the rear cover
. Again this is just one of the ways I build other peoples cars....mine, I just start part hoarding and throw it all in at once to alleviate down time....sometimes.....otherwise I just go and spray it

I really dont wanna spray it i would rather do a chrger on it, and thats still a big maybe. I dont want it to be too radical but i would also like to do some really decent upgrades, and i am looking into the corvette brake system. But it sounds like a plan, i will try it out and see how it works for me THANKS!!
