What next?

McMustang5.0 · November 23rd, 2009, 08:14 PM

Alright guys, I just came into a shit ton of money (about a grand) and I was wondering what mod I should do next?

Currently I have a Edelbrock Victor Intake Manafold, Edelbrock 650 Carb and some Nitto street/drag tires on the car.

I just bought some cool racing seats off of ebay and was thinkig of a nice cam and lifters set.

I'm open to any idea's of power adders and why.

thanks

I would recommend putting the money in heads, either get a set of gt40p's and some suspension. Or you could pick up a set of nice used trickflows/afr's with the money.

x2 last thing i'd worry about is a cam.. the stocker isn't hurting you right now

used aluminum heads or maybe the new edelbrocks that are like 750

McMustang5.0 · November 24th, 2009, 12:44 AM

Cool. I found some Gt-40P's at junk yard a while back.

If I buy them should I get them rebuilt?

Nitrous FTMFW !!! What other mod less then 400 bucks will get you 175 horses ?

baine21225 · November 24th, 2009, 07:39 AM

get some used aluminum ones

302Army187 · November 24th, 2009, 08:32 AM

trick flow twisted wedge heads.

Most people regreat buying GT40's if there out for a decent amount of power. GT40's are for if you dont mine making 270hp as a max.

as everyone else said Heads. They make or break you.

Just to add to this. I wouldn't actually call 1000 bucks a shit ton of money

88-gt-t-top · November 24th, 2009, 12:35 PM

forget those explore junk heads, either buy a used set of aluminum heads or save and buy a new set of heads.

86_Notch · November 24th, 2009, 02:30 PM

I'll take anybodies " junk" stockers or gt 40s .

93hatch · November 24th, 2009, 02:36 PM

take the p's to a shop and ask how much to have them redecked if they need it, new guides installed and the right springs for your cam, if its more than 350 or so then save. Any used heads you buy should be checked out as well

McMustang5.0 · November 24th, 2009, 03:03 PM

Hahaha. Well you gotta understand that $1000 is a lot to me. I'm still in H.S. and my monthly income is $400.

So forget the Gt-40P's!?!?

Save for Twiseted wedge heads?
