Whats next??
So i just picked up all new plugs and wires as well as motor mounts to put in when i do my header and y pipe swap, car will have full exhaust and cai with light weight reduction. What should i do next? thinking of going the cam route with some more weight reduction and stickier tires. Or should i get a built rear, clutch and driveshaft first? car is going to be a street car with probably no track use ever. Goal is to have 450ish rwhp, something thatll move and be able to stomp the occasional cocky stang

roll racing on the street do you think id be ok for a while? sticky street tires probably not even drag radials. Maybe ill suck it up with my tax return and get a rear, gonna need it eventually anyway i guess.

Best piece of advice ive been given, build your car from the rear to the front. Start with a rearend then work to tranny/clutch, then motor. Having a lot of power is useless if your burning up clutches and breaking rearends and cant get the power to the ground. Unfortunately, i heard this after i got started so im completely a$$ backwards.
