after looking at many things im gonna start with rebuilding the rear, building the trans with a decent stall, suspension mods, and the last will be the motor

thanks again for your suggestions..you guys know lt1's so i trust your ideas
Its really not worth the time and associated costs involved with a cam swap if you plan on swapping it out in a short time period. Leave it stock and build up parts for one build done right.

By rebuilding the rear, you mean anything involving the 10 bolt, throw those ideas out and don't waste a single cent on it. Save for a 12 bolt at the very least.

Other wise, suspension will always be helpful down the road so thats a good place to start.
