Typical question. I have a lot of stuff on the car for now. Were do I want to go next? I want a strong performer. Nothing wild. I drive it on weekends for fun.

I want to get the Steen racing Heads/Cams package and some Long Tube headers. Aluminim Drive Shaft. After that It will be a T-56 or a body kit next year. Year after that Probably a KB Twin screw blower.

It seems like I might be missing something. Roll bars? Bigger brakes?

Some guys say they have ALL the bolt-ons. What am I missing?

Thanks,

Missing the fact that your aluminum driveshaft will have to be modified (shortened) to connect to that T-56!

Yo're right. I knew there was a reason I was waiting to get a Drive Shaft. Should I also wait before ordering a Clutch and Pressure plate? Wil it be compatible with the T-56?

Thanks.

I would definitely do the clutch/pressure plate at the same time as the T-56. I would think that they may differ somewhat although I don't have those particular details.

If you are looking at going blown in a year or two make sure you make a good cam decision now. I would go with crower stage 2 blower cams right now, even on a N/A car. they are good for both N/A and blown cars. I'm running mine right now before I get the blower on and they are still awesome. They seem way better than my VT Stage 2's ever were.

yeah do the drivetrain upgrades together, that way you dont double work yourself either. lets face it pulling the trans on our cars isnt fun. especially with LT's

Hmm, so are there some headers that will work with the T-56 transmission? I'd rather plan ahead and get the right stuff the first time.
