My car ran high 15's stock with 3.08 open rear and open air filter. Those 3.42's will help you a lot but the 1.75 lowering springs are going to kill your traction unless you have LCA relocation brackets. Good luck

My relocation brackets are going in wednesday. When it's all said and done I'll have a good idea on how much they help. My car was lowered with the eibach prokit so like 1.25" all around.

Definite you'll be in the 15's. And the 1.75" drop shouldnt cause wheel hop. When I had 2" drop all around it would hop alot. But then now I have the pro kit in the front and 2" in the back. And now it doesnt hop. Hmmm...confusing...

I would do the headers and then the LT1 cam and the intake at the same time since you have to remove the intake to put the cam in. Once you see the new y-pipe with the headers you will understand y it should be changed next. The exhaust is VERY restrictive. I replaced ALL of my exhaust and ordered 3" parts for TPI car.
