How much is too much to have done at once?
Hey guys I am going to be getting some stuff done soon and I was wondering how much is too much?
I am thinking about getting:
-Trick Flow Top End Kit (Head Combo, Rockers, Head Bolts, Intake, Camshaft, Pushrods, Timing Set, Valve Covers, Gaskets)
-Throttle Body to match intake
-Exhaust rattle so I need that fixed
-New Alternator
-Control Arms
What are your thoughts?

^ +1 LoL
I think thats fine... its alot but it will be fine because the control arms, etc. have nothing to do with your motor so do the h/c/i swap and once your done with that go for the control arms. Im in the process of getting parts + saving cash for my setup this winter. At the same time Im doing street heat manifold, 70mm tb, 76mm MAF, Novi 1000, power pipe, 8' crank pulley, injectors, fuel pump and gauges.
Also, at the same time Im going to do shocks/panhard bar (whenever i decide to install it if i even do). and my whole front suspension in one shot... D&D k member, D&D a arms, D&D front coil over kit w/ strange 10 ways, and MM CC plates! Now THAT should be fun lol Just my opinion but I rather put my car down for a few weeks than put it down every weekend for a month ya know. I like doing my projectors in bulk.

Do you guys think I should get catback, midpipe, and headers while its in there or do you think it would be ok to have it done later (few months)? Just wondering cause I have alimited amount of money and exhuast would probably be another 1k.
