what to get for 1500-2000 bucks?
« on: December 22, 2009, 09:42:53 PM »
hey i was wondering what you guys would suggest for the best mods with 1500 to 2k to spend? I am pretty sure i will get bbk long tube headers, but not sure what else. i don't i want to get 4:10 gears because i drive all highway to work and don't want my mileage to go to shit. i was also looking at a bbk t-body maybe different fuel injectors, maybe a tuner to but would like to her what you guys have to say. thanks

well gears are the best bang for the buck do you have auto or 5 spd? normally 5spd gets 3.73 and auto gets 4.10s and a stall converter.....

do you really need upgraded injectors? depends if you have the mods to support them as for upgrading Lincoln Mark 8's have 24lb injectors from the factory.....along with a larger throttle body you can use for cheap :)

full exhaust is a great up grade but my vote it gears......

I wouldn't do gears, I like exhaust.  So do headers with a nice catback exhaust, then go with a K&N filter

A tuner with a performance chip would be nice.
