Default Need opinions please

I'm torn. my Girlfriend wants me to chill out on modding the mustang so I can save for our house, a ring anda daily driver. To get the daily driver I'm selling my drag car to get teh daily driver, which will free up space for the 87 in the garage. Anyways I've been playing wiht several ideas asking questions on each setup but which would you guys choose. First would be AFR's with a custom cam, injectors and proffesional product intake, new maf and TB. Second is a 347 longblock from an engine builder in Concorde it wold be carburated but its 3700 for everything except carb, it makes 400 and 440 at motor. Last would be to save up a little more and build theCarbed 351W in the garage with some AFR's and bigger intake, carb, cam etc.. which would I be happier with in the long run? Its only going to bedrivenon weekends maybe once a week andI'll also be spraying still. Sorry its so long I'm just torn.

Dude, you're 20 and she's rushing you to buy a house. Christ, have some fun w/ your life. If this is how she is now, it's just a preview of your future w/ her. Get my meaning?

Tell her to get a second job and save up for a ring and house. 20 is too young to start your life downhill.

20 is way to young to worry about a house and getting married. if shes this demanding now, what do you think shell be like after your married. grow some ***** and mod the car.

My ex-girlfriend told me I spent too much money on my cars and not enough on her. She said I needed to decide which was more important. I told her I was keeping the faster one. Now I have nicer and faster cars and a wife with huge fake *****. No regrets.

Settling down at 20? Live a little and wait till youre atleast 30 or more. Whats her rush? Her parents married young didnt they?

Ive had 3gfs in the last 7 years and ive learned this...Never let a woman run your life or plan your future or they will suck you dry. You need a woman that will support you and your interests. Even share them.
