Well, maybe not that big of a life decision I guess.
Since I'm moving down to the US in a couple weeks and the prices of parts are
way cheaper than here in Canada (even with the exchange). I'm thinking about putting some money in my car.
After reading a MM&FF 5.0 Tech article I've been thinking about buying (And I'm leaning to Edelbrock, but Holley and GT40 parts are still an option) new Heads, intake, 65mm TB, cam (similar to E303), TB adapter, New Timing chain and Rockers, 3.73s and long tube headers. (Boy that sounds like a lot considering I should still add a new MAF and 24lb injectors with a better fuel pump).
Anyway grabing some prices from Summit and the like it's going to cost between $2500 and $3000 for all that. And I should be able to hit mid 13's with that combo I hope.
I've been thinking why not just buy the 3.73's and get a Vortech S-trim. I know that it would probably run me $3500 to $4000, but would I see better performance? I could always start to add the TB, intake, etc. after, right?
Which way should I lean? My car has 60,000 miles on it, would that be any concern for a Vortech?
Which path do I take???
