I just cannot tell you how horrible the motor that currently resides in the car is---I don't think it makes 300 HP. I was joking with Dave that I added 1.6 rockers to it to increase total lift on the cam to over .400----with virtually no change to power---LOL. It's just a place holder---but a very anemic one--so I am def looking forward to the motor install. The cool thing is, it came with a new Comp Cam and springs that needs to be installed. Should pump up the power to over 500---that will be a welcome addition.

Keep your head up man, it'll all work out. Just remember you already have a sweet ride as is, so it will only get better! Your philosophy of one mod at a time is exactly how I am doing my Camaro also. In the next month or so I am swapping out the stamped factory a-arms for tubular ones and switching coil springs again. I am building everything else up first and then tackling the engine. It may take longer to get a finished product, but hey, are they ever finished anyways.
