Question Most out of bolt ons...

Hey guys just signed up for this because i have a few questions that bother me. i have a 95 z28 6sp, and i have installed moroso intake, grant MAF, hooker headers and flowmaster cat back. also my cat has been cut. is there any tuning i need to do or can do to get the most out of these mods. and anything else thats simple that this car needs to squeeze out more horse. i know that the car will run better cooler, but what do i need to do to my cooling circut to accomplish that. any news is good. appreciate any help

Underdrive pulley, 4.10 gears, fan switch, aluminum driveshaft....and maybe a tune to squeeze out every hp available...but I personally would just do a cam and then get it tuned...or cam and heads.

I saw you said you have a best time of 13.5, i have run 13.76 with the car i have, even when i t was stock i could break into the 13s but barely, it was with wider rubber, 97 ss wheels on the back. what is the advatange of the 4:10 GEARS, AND I HAVE LOOKED EVERYWHERE FOR AN ALUMINUM drive shaft, and the switches for the cooling fans are a must. appreciate the replys

Well that time was with a crappy sixty foot. With slicks I could probably click off 13.0s or better. 4.10s help the car rev out faster and get into the meat of the power a lot sooner. It is a very good seat of the pants (sotp) mod.
