Sounds like a solid plan. I didn't see heads anywhere on the list. Have you thought about those at all? As for weight reduction it all depends on what you want to do with the car. you can switch to manual steering, remove the spare tire and jack, remove back seats and belts, fiberglass hood. Just for starters.

heads/cam/intake (in progress) i have the heads now, and am working on porting!

customer prom (in progress) i have all my datalogging stuff working, i have everything except the program , as soon as i order that i am on my way.

gears/posi - this will probably happen fairly quickly just trying to descide on the battle plan for that.

suspension (always in progress with me )- i have ALOT of this done, so not top prority for me, i have a few misc. things to get still. i have everything people normaly do to the suspension done, what is left is some custom work and some really fine tuning.

i think that pretty much covers this spring/early summer. i hope to be going 13s and improve my handling even more.

BTW this is all happening on the car i drive to work EVERYDAY!

Get a fiberglass Harwood hood. Either stock or a cowl induction.
