supporting mods for a cam are, headers, generally LT's, better cat back then slowmaster, ill be switching mine soon. CAI, valve springs, usually lifters, rockers, check your pushrods, there are several cams u can go with that u can drive daily and still have good street manners, CC305, CC503

If you don't hook it doesn't mater how much power you are making.
When my 94 was just a H/C car it had a road race style setup...at the strip and on a 150 shot I could not get out of the 12's...best was a 12.1@120...avg 60' was 1.9-2.0 on ET Streets

Lowering springs reduce the amount of front to rear transfer, just as they help reduce right to left roll.
You have to decide if you want excellent cornering or straight line.
If you try to do both you will sacrifice a little on both sides.
