1984 TransAm Upgrade

I've just spent the past hour or so going through the posts in this section. I must say I'm more confused than when I started. I am thinking of doing the complete suspension/brakes/steering on my 84 T/A. Is there anybody offering a complete kit if you want to replace pretty much everything with aftermarket stuff that is designed to work together? What should be upgraded? definitley brakes. Ball joints, tie rod ends, bushings, Control arms? Sway bars? What determines the biggest wheel/tire combo you can put on? Just the wheel well size or will anything else be a factor? I'd like to upgrade to better disk brake setup. Is the rotor size you can go to only determined by the wheel size? What's the deal with the 1LE brakes and suspension conversion? Is that better than going with a Baer or some other aftermarket kit? Whats everybodys dream setup? This car is not an everyday driver. By the way, I like super handling with a drag strip trip once a year. Not autocross, not a drag car. Somewhere in between I guess. Anybody have the title of a good performance suspension book? Thanks. ---Rich
