Default What mods do you have planned before the next car season?

I've decided that if I close this big deal we have been working on at work all year that I would allow myself to spend a couple more bucks on the car over the winter.

Planned mods would be:
60lb injectors
SCT Big Mouth MAF
Pulley down the S-trim
Retune on 100% Turbo Blue 110 race gas.
I want 600RWHP.

I'm not sold on hacking the Cobra R wheels in half to have them widened, but I may need to put a 315 BFG Drag on the car to make 1st and 2nd gear usable.

Anyway, it's not certain yet but that looks to be the plan.
How about you guys/gals? Any winter modding plans??

I plan on putting a lagre cam in G5x3, springs, rods.. Then bigger injectors and fuel pump then up the n20 a bit and then clutch (maybe ls7 clutch?? i dont know what i want yet).

The first part should happen I dont know about the rest. But my goals are 380NA 500N20 but we will see what happens.

Looking at Vette's again, hopefully will have one come springtime.

I'm wanting a red 90-93 ZR1. I found a deal on one a few months back but the trans was cracked at the tailshaft, and ZF wanted almost $6k to have it shipped to germany and fixed. Needless to say i passed on that one, but i'll keep looking. If i can't find a deal on a ZR1 i think an LT1 C4 might work

Larger cam, fixing the compression/blow by issue (most likely just rings but i'll throw some forged pistons in it while its all torn apart), re-tune the carb and get that all sorted out, a better converter and maybe just maybe some happy juice. All depends on how much i spend on my new daily driver and how much i feel like throwing at the Camaro. We'll see how it goes

New short block for the Olds, finish the interior on the Mustang, get a set of track wheels and tires, actually a bunch of things, but thats what winter is for.
