Well you don't NEED a hood since your engine fits under fine. So I say suspension and gears.

It wouldn't be a bad idea to get a grand in the bank, then start over on saving for parts....just so you will always have cash. It would be a good thing to get used to for when you move out and start your real life.....paycheck to paycheck sucks, so does debt.

that sounds like the smartest suggestion so far

paycheck to paycheck does suck,

especially when its bi-weekly

gt40 heads

comp xe270 cam
full exhaust
3.73s(going in soon)

no point in adding more power without good suspension

Flex and deflection will reduce torque getting to the wheels as well as the strength of your chassis causing higher 60ft times.
