go with a head/cam package, intake and tb, clutch, suspension upgrades and a 9 inch. add in a 100 shot of harris speed works wet kit and that car will be flying. easily tunable as well unlike any FI car. Not sure what gave you the impression that guys posting dont like LS1, its a great platform and can make a ton of power even on stock internals.

Id put a TNT F2 kit, stall, and MT ET Drag Radials. I would then spend the rest of it on ******. That investment **** is for the birds, spend it now.


The above statement proves why I do not have any and will never have any money.
