Next Mod, need opinions

I've been working on my 383 stroker project.
my setup is as follows: Powerhouse 383 stroker kit
9.5:1 compression
LT4 Hotcam
LT1 Manifold
Edelbrock Headers
Ported L98 Cast Iron Heads (stock valves)
Pro-Built Transmission
And all the free mods to go.

Just trying to decide on what should be next and figured i'd get some opinions...

i would go w/ some suspension parts to help traction...b/c that thing isnt ever gonna hook up lol or some 3.73's.

parts like rear LCA relocation brackets,better panhard bar and torque arm,and MOST DEF. some sub-frame connectors. theres many companies out there with bolt in and weld in connectors.

should help get u in the right direction

Those eldelbrock headers aren't exactly the champion of headers if you catch my drift... help them out with a good catback system or a well placed cutout. I guarantee they are a restriction for the 383. Still... much better than stock manifolds.

Hrm, headers might be a good idea....catback also probably a good 3" would do wonders. I have suspension but it's kind of laying in boxes waiting to get put on
