What did you get with your SS? Does it have all the aftermarket SLP stuff like lid, smooth bellows, etc?

You could add for relatively cheap:
160* stat (Cheapest)
4.10's (Best next mod for the $$)
LCAs
True Duals or a cat back system
DiabloSport Predator tuner (I gained over 27 rwhp and 20 rwtq with mine, and it'll let you change the fan start and stop points to go with your 160* stat)

...just a few suggestions.

I'd go with NGK plugs, MSD wires and a Zo6 MAF the total would be about 200 buck and you could do it all yourself

Suspension MODS are the way to go man, why have all that power if your just gonna spin em in 1st for an hour...Put it to the pavement.

Get Lower control arms, adj. torque arm, subframe connectors, and maybe even thicker swaybars...

AMEN!

I like hooking up and handling stock LS1s are plenty quick.

Don't bother that bike will do bad things to you.

75 dry shot is the way to go.

He's wanting to race a bike. He could turn off his A/C and see the same result as a 75 shot. Lot cheaper too.

how would a z06 maf help? The stock one is good up to 500hp. Waste of money to change.
