I would look into the K&N airfilters regardless of carb or EFI. The K&N will let more air into the carb. The headers are up to you, you wont get a monster gain from the LT headers but in the future with any other mods the LTs will pick up more than the Shorties.
Just my .02

The question is what do you want to do? Just spend mindless money on a car? I'm 18 and beleive me it can get ridiculous. I built the turbo kit for my car and man once you start you can get in over your head quick. If things are going okay I would leave it unless you got a lot of money and a reason to spend it. Your combo already sounds pretty good.

Why yes, yes they are. I wouldn't trade them for ANY exhaust system/muffler out there.

At Advance Auto, AutoZone, O'Reilley's, etc. Car sounds fun.

I'd save some money for some AFR 185 heads or get some spray.
