Default Good Stage 1 ?

I have assemled a small list of 'must haves' for my relatively stock 97 ws-6.

1)Granatelli mass air sensor.
2)pace setter lt's
3)pace setter 3 inch y-pipe
4)pro 5.0 shifter
5)slp 160 deg. thermostat
6)slp linelock kit.

The car already has k&n and borla cat-back, and the hypertech programmer.

Please give your opinions and advice... experiences with any of the listed parts is apreciated. Thanks, Chris

don't need #1...been proven that the stock one works better

get some gear in there 3.73 or 4.10's


the hypercrap didn't do much for me. I guess with will be good to set the rev limiter

with the list of mods at this point the line lock is a waste of $$$$

get some sticky tires

get a Cold Air Induction

get LS1 drive shaft.. it will feel better in the higher RPM's
