97 Z28 build thread Here is my 97 z28.brought the car for 2000 from a close friend.everything is in pretty good condition( interior , paint , engine ).The current mods on the car are BBK 58mm throttle body , 373 gears , MsD Spark Plug wires..NGK spark plugs , SLP Loudmouth 1 Exhaust , and a K&N CAI. What other bolt ons can i add for the most noticeable performance upgrade ?
IMO, long tube headers, tune, high flow cats, and wash those wheels.
I decided to visit the suspension dept on my car before the motor dept. Now that its sittin pretty, I am ready for the motor to be upgraded.

Are the plugs and wires fresh? A good tune up and fluild change is always a great place to start. Auto or 6spd ? If auto a and miles are high a good rebuild and converter is a great place to start w/ a tune.. I'd also look into suspension. Quality struts/shocks paired with the right spring will help handling with bigger sway bars.. What do you want to do w/ the car?
