Opinions please
Ok. I think I have finally decided what I am going to do with my Trans-AM. It is mostly stock right now. All I have is a complete MSD ingition system and a 3' catback. Although my catylitic converter is hosed. Anyway I will have about $400.00 to spend on my car however I want to spend it. Any ideas on what I should do?
I need almost a whole new interior minus the dash. All my seals are good and I can not afford paint. And my paint job is decent anyway. I want to go with fourth gen leather seats eventually. I think I am going from a grey interior to a black. That would be my preference. As for my engine and drive train plans I think I have decided on what to do.
Beef up the 305. I saw that someone had made one into a 335 by stroking it or something like that. Convert to serpentine and get the ATI procharger kit.
Obviously I don't have the cash for all of that right now. I felt that a list of my long term plans would help any one give me some good ideas on what to do with my upcomming free cash.
So bring on the ideas.

Headers/y-pipe and save up for a 350 build. Don't waste your time and money building up a 305 unless you have something you want to prove.

AFPR? I am afraid that the acronym isn't registering in my head. I did think about doing some work to the TPI system.
