Best mods which one?
I am debating on what I should do? I am going to get a superram and headers but which one should I get first. And how much hp and tq will stroking it out to a 383 give me? but mainly torque.

if you had to do one first, id do headers
I plan on doing a SR 383, and i'm going with exhaust, then intake, then 383.
If you plan on doing a 383, then get 1.75" longtubes.
A SR 383 will run in the 11s with the right tires, so that puts you in the 450 hP/tq range.

Longtube headers are about 15hp on an L98, the SR should give about 20.

The LPE website post that the SR will give out 61TQ @ 5800. Is this wrong :confused: . Do you guys know the cheapest place to buy some hooker 2151's.
Is there better headers for the same price than the 2151's.

I have TPIS longtubes and a SuperRam on my L98 with stock heads and cam. I havent been to the track yet with the SuperRam and the chip reburned to match but I would not be surprised if I break into the 12's
