a convertor and gas will be a great advantage to you. With the 3.23 gears you shouln't have too much of an issue planting the rear, but some suspension upgrades will be needed soon. Especially if you plan on going to a 3.73 or 4.10 gear.

personally...i would do spray/stall first... you need a stall to get the max out of a cam.. so do the spra/stall... then get cam/headers... and you have a race car.

You wont have to go to radical on the suspension, lot of cars run great on not so wild suspensions. Get that converter, gas and tires, should run great

In my opinion, I would look into the camshaft and the converter first. After a while when you can get the gas, headers, gears and tires, you will appreciate that the cam and converter are already done.

A stall is like one of the best things to can get for an auto, so that's a given. And i'd go with the spray too, you'll love it.

Get a good set of tires(m/t drag radials ) and it should run good with the stall/spray.

Make sure you get a stall designed to work with nitrous. PI will set you up with a stall that is built to your current/future mods. That's what I did, since I plan on spraying later on this summer, and then building a high comp bottle baby.
