Bolt on order???
Bolt on order??? I plan to start a full bolt on this spring. Later a full build. With that in mind what mods do I want for my full bolt on and what do I do first,second, and so on. Keep in mind I am your average guy and don't have thousands to blow at a time, this will be a summer long deal. I have a 95 camaro lt1 A4.
My thoughts are.
1) CAI.
2) Free mods
3) Hooker long tubes.
4) True duals with x pipe and Spintechs.
5) 3500 stall
6) 3.73 ears
7) Shift kit
8) Torque arm
9) Sub Frame connectors
10) Electric water pump
11) Intake Elbow
12) 58 mm Throttle Body
13) Ported intake
14) Mail order tune.
What else am I lacking or how should I rearrange the order of install.
15) maybe 100 shot.
Then
16) 12 bolt moser rear
17) Heads and cam. Maybe LE2 or 3 combo.
Then
18) Fully forged 383 build.

I would do the mail order tune when your done with mods? That wayt you dont have to get it tuned twice...unless you only plan on doing so much this year and do the other next year?
I would do Stall/Shift Kit before Gears b/c an Automatic isn't anything at all without a Stall trust me you will love it. Don't waste your money on an Intake Elbow, TB, or Ported Intake, won't do squat on a bolt-on car. I wouldn't bother with a TB or Manifold Porting until your at the Heads/Cam level. I would add LCA's to that list.

When I get to the point of head/cam packages, can I run them on my stock bottom end then when I get my bottom end rebuilt just swap them over? I will probably have to get them freshened up huh? Can a local shop do that, or if I get say LE2's, do I need to send them back to Lloyd's shop????
hmm yo ucould go with a 58mm throttle body but thats way to much for your setup unless your running an LE3 or forced induction. and with that itll give you the cost of that ~$300 and put it towards your exhaust which i would put up first along with a CAI for performance mods. thats what i did and am very happy. just dont forget you could burn up your O2's with coated headers
