Well the motor that is in the car wont be getting heads or a cam.

I have another motor in my basement that will be getting all the good stuff. And I have a nice interest savings account for that.

So besides engine stuff what would you guys do?

Might think about changing the gears in the rear. If you do it yourself.

did you do the rear brakes, too? Didn't see that on the list. Maybe get them up to speed with the fronts. Or just set it aside for the new motor in that savings account

The rear brakes are stock.

Im looking to improve on the handling of the car. Just wondering how much improvement coil overs and tubular a arms would give me?

I ordered a strut tower brace from MM last week.
