I got a bonus at work and i am going to invest in an upgrade; either handling or power upgrade.

My car is a daily driver and i only do occational aggressive street driving


What would be the best bang for my buck?
~~UPGRADE VALVETRAIN~~
>Port/polish my heads for ~$600,
>AND cam, valve springs, retainers, 1.6RRs, pushrods etc. for~$750
GRAND TOTAL: ~$1200

Or something else? Suggestions?

Thanks In advance

It depends on what you want. To me being a daily driver means for it to drive good. The 3 best things I did to my 95 were.
1. Upgrading to LS1 brakes
2. BMR sub frame connectors
3. BMR sway bars.
4. You may laugh but I like the sound of the Dynamax exhaust on mine. It was by far the cheapest exhaust too.

Tighten her up!

+1 on the BMR SFCs and Sways...pop a shock tower brace too.

Sounds like a good plan of attack! i might go with ST sway bars, they are big, solid and 242.99 +shipping for both fr(1-3/8") and rear(1") together.

As far as the SFCs which is better recommended, the Double Triagle configuration for the extra $$$$$ or the standard straight Tubes

BMR's web site has some packages that will knock off some $$$. I ended up getting a free shock tower brace ordering a package.

[RAF7789]

The only thing with the packages is that they are super pricey and i wouldn't be able to choose what goes in the package.

SFCs and Sways are what i will order for now. Where is a good place to look at the LS1 brakes?

Where's the FUN in THAT??!?

Besides, i don't have a savings account, just a checking acct and there is no interest on it so it just sits and gets dusty lol.

You make a valid point though and i thank you for your concern.
