valvetrain upgrade...
im thinking about a supercharger of some sort but in the meantime i want to get a little extra power with some good valvetrain upgrades. should i get a cam, a complete package, 1.6 rockers, or what. im not too sure what would be the best choice on a budget. i can do any work myself, but i was wondering what would be the smartest choice here. gonna be mostly stock except some bolt ons, with the exception of the cam and maybe soem head work. what do u guys think? thanks

Too many choices to make a recommendation. Try a search on valve springs
and do some reading. I have posted at length on valvetrain so search by my
user name if all else fails.

i was planning on getting the MAC headers with the y-pipe too, cause right now i have all stock exhaust but no muffler, it just goes over the axle and splits into the 2 stock tail pipes. BTW how big is the stock exhaust pipe after the cat. im thinking about possibly this kit here...

thats all i would need right? as far as what would be neccesary and what would be best to upgrade right? i need to pay my parents back some money right now and im gonna get new LCA's, relocation brackets, and drop springs for a little better stance and what not, plus one of my LCA's has a decent size kink in it. anyways, im hoping by next year i can change the rear main seal cause its leaking, do the cam, and get a good valve job done. does ne one know how hard it is, and what the procedure is on the LT1s, to change the rear main. is it a 2 piece or what? does the trans have to come out or anythign like that. if anyone has a walkthrough or somethign thatd be great. thanks for all the help.
