Newb with a stang

welcome aboard...get some subframe connectors welded in

Good mods! Looks like you're on the right track. Welcome.

Auto or manual? I am figuring manual because you said shifter, but there are auto shifters as well. 3.55 is a good conservative all around gear. It seems all togeather you have a pretty good foundation going. Like said before, get some subframes welded in. Don't just do a intake and cam swap, do the heads as well, they are a big bottleneck, the stock cam isn't bad, do the heads before the cam, depending on funds. Don't forget the MAF, Headers, and TB.

Well welcome to the V8 world and thanks for not falling victim to the fast and the ***ots scene,LOL. Hey anyway if you search the forums Im sure that you will find lots of opinions on heads, cam choices, as well as intakes. I went the route that I did due to funds myself and I think that for all the added motor parts that I have(I bought all of them used) I think that I spent about 1300 total. On the street I give a LS1 Commaro hell, that is as long as he hasnt moded it much. With the parts that I have and running on radials I turn a 13.5. But like evey one will tell you, have a plan before you start. Have fun and happy gear banging.

Hey LEDGENDARY, How does that B cam work with the 1.7's? I had been thinking about switching to the TFS 1 cam but have read some things about running 1.7's with the stock cam with some really good results. What does that make the lift on the B cam?
