new 95 z28. need help for mods
Just got a 95 z28 with a lt1 motor. Light mode include: custom super fkin loud y-pipe, ported intake manifold, cold air, throttle body,msd ignition, original zr1 wheels. 265s. My plans are to put wide tires in the back, maybe 295s. Vengeance racing cams, 3.73 or 4.11 gears, better stronger rear end. Anyone got mode that would put me at 500rwhp on a budget. No nitrous. I want this thing to tear it up. What kind of mode and tires should I get, and any good websites? Thanks all

Budget and 500rwhp don't really go together. Do bolt-ons first then go from there. Start with headers, good exhaust, gears 4.10s for m6 3.73 for a4, stall if you're auto, and a tune. Then do suspension work

Well my.budget is a navy budget. Roughly 850 a check every two weeks. I really want cams and gears. But I don't know what kind. I've read on forums for hours trying to figure it out. I have a perfect exhaust set up. Maybe headers would be good tho, like some hooker headers?

OP you need to decide what your really WANT out of the car. Just saying 500 horse and racing cams and budget... I mean it sounds good and well, but in reality you really need to do your homework and come up with a realistic goal. Once you do that we are all here to help. Personally I'd put in a 3.73 gear and spray it till it blows up. Rebuild, repeat. LT1s LOVE nitrous.

just save up for a 6months and then do the mod, like what they said heads and cam from LE and then boltons. tq converter if your auto with 373 and clutch with 411 if u m6. you should do lca and tq arm and read the stickies at top.

Okay well the guy I bought it from said it puts out around 360hp and 400 tq. I could shoot for 400 hp to the wheels. But 3.73 gears sounds great. And I've been reading up on lt1s to learn more. Im wondering where I can get a good trq converter, 3800 stall would be good? Or 2500. Is summit racing any good?
