I am saving up so the day she is payed off, I will build the motor up, supercharge, gears, tranny, suspension, but until then...bolt ons. I rather do it once than be hating life.
i really want to do it all at once, but don't got the cash to... and don't mind doing little at a time... i have got a dyno tune 2 times lol, i just keep doing a little at a time and keep getting retuned

Dont see a problem in doing suspension upgrades ahead of schedule. Maybe even a gear swap, except the lower mpg's

Do the cam swap you're not going to hurt nothing with 450hp besides the rear trailing arms and they are not that expensive.

Just be aware that the higer the ratio the smaller the pinion, and there are several blown rear ends on here due to that!
