I finally got a me a 99 z28

Hey guys I'm new to these cars I recently sold one of my Grand Nationals and figured I'll try one of these out. I found a 99 z28 for $3700. It has SS hood and spoiler, hooker long tube headers and a slp loudmouth exhaust. What are some good mods to start off with on these car. I just found out that the 99 z28 has the 5.7 motor. Is there any advantage to having this year. I have 5.3 motor from a 2000 silverado are the heads worth having some port work done to them and switching them out. I was also thinking about a Ls6 intake, cam(not sure of what grind whats recommended something with a nice lope to it but streetable)torque convertor( not sure on stall) and gear for rear end 3:73 or 3:90 or 4:10????????? I'm so excited about this new project. I don't know where to begin. Any help and incite is well appreciated.

Welcome to CamaroZ28.com ! ! !

I'll "copy" your post to the LS1 Based Engine Tech forum where you are more likely to get the info you are looking for.

Welcome! Congratz on your purchase! An LS6 intake, head porting, and a cam will put you right where you want to be, should put you in the 400hp range!
