Undercar neons, the dual surfboard wing, 7" exhaust tips, and LOTS of stickers! JUST KIDDIN!!!

Like IEC said, go with rear gears, either 3.55 or 3.73 Gears are by far the most "bang for the buck". Juice will get you there too, but only as long as the bottle is full. I'd go the cam/heads route myself. You SHOULD have a set of E7's on there already, yank 'em and get them ported/cleaned up. Throw in an E303 cam. If you have enough cheddar left over, BBK shortie headers, that way you don't have to buy a complete exhaust system.....

here you go:

$175 4.10 gears in that AOD
$100 underdrive pullies (i like my March 1000)
$300 2.5 inch catback exhaust (i assume your H-pipe is 2.5")

most important........
Drag Radials or Slicks!

and take off as much weight as possbile. fog lights (if u got em), sway bars, rear seats, passanger seats, you can go nuts!

i think all this will get you in the 13's for under $1000

Go with some 4.10s and a new TC, Around 9" 3500 stall and a good shift kit or valve body. And dont forget a tranny cooler! thats the best improvements for an AOD car I promise!

If you want a new TC, that is great, but you really get what you pay for here. So if you want one, dont waste ur money on crap and be prepared to spend a good amount.
