What's up everyone? Currently my car is up in the air so I have easy access to the engine and whatnot. I am in the process of installing new plugs wires b/c I have been burning through them b/c of my LT headers. I am going to be re-routing them above the valve covers.

I just want to get some opinions on some other mods that I could do while I have easy access to the engine (I plan to in the future bore the motor to a 383 and force induct it). I need to replace my waterpump also, so that'll be a project.

Currenlty I have TPIS Long-tubes, Taylor 8mm wires, +4 plugs, G2 cold-air induction, air-foil, Borla, off-road y-pipe, transgo shift kit, and a lot of BMR suspension products.

What do you guys think I should do next? I'd like to get an MSD 6AL. Please let me know. You can check out pics of my car at the link below.

Electric waterpump maybe?

 

ditch the G2 intake, they suck...better than stock but not as good as the morroso or similar intakes.

electric WP obviously

how bout and underdrive pulley?

 

From what I've been reading about electric water pumps, they don't seem to be worth it unless you have a mostly track car. The CSR ones are rated at 5000 hours worth of operation time. To tell you the truth, right now I am kind of on the fence about the electric water pumps... Anybody want to push me over either way?

 

Well, a low temp thermostat, tb bypass, a mail order tune from Madz28 or PCMFORLESS, lower control arms, relocation brackets, panhard rod, ect. all quickly come to mind.

rough prices

thermostat 20.00
custom tune 100.00-150.00
lcas 95.00-115.00
panhard rod 95.00-125.00
relocation brackets-65.00
throttle body bypass - free

 

Look at it this way... How many hours a day do you drive your car? Lets say 25 (right...) hours per week 5000/25=200. 200 weeks is 4 years. If you put 25k miles each of those years, you'd get 100k miles from your electirc waterpump.
