New converter and rear end... now what? Title says a lot she's hooked up with a Strange racing rear end and a RPM stage V 4l60e trans with a 3000 stall converter. I'm running 12.6214 in the 1/4, so now I'm thinking what's next. I'm debating between getting a C5 brake kit ( http://6litereaterdesigns.com/store/...roducts_id=218 shown here) or a Heads and Cam package that the shop that did the latest batch of work. Just wondering what you all think.

Since it seems like you are building more of a drag car I don't see the point of doing the C5 brake conversion.
The real advantages to the conversion are the stronger built calipers that wont spread when in extreme road race conditions when high speed braking multiple times. You will likely see no difference on the street.
If you want better braking get good pads like Hawk HPS and good blank rotors.
