What kind of gains will i get with these small mods??

I'm just thinking of some easy things i can do over the winter to my lt1. You know just some stuff to give it a little more edge until next summer. I was thinkin tb bypass,52mm throttle body, then i was thinkin about some suspension stuff like qa1's all the way around some type of springs that do not lower my car. A bmr strut tower bar and some other type of stuff from bmr will those things give my car a much better feel and be quicker in the 1/4 mile?

Those two mods might net you a .1 in the 1/4 at the most. The shocks and the STB will make your car handle very nicely, along with a set of progressive-rate springs.

if your going to buy a cam and valvetrain upgrades then i would look into gears. Depending on how big you go, you need to keep traction. i.e.=Drag radials The shocks will allow you to tune your suspension for your launch.
