Default What would you do.......

Ok heres the deal Im sellin my 2005 GMC Yukon and ive been talkin to a guy on price and it looks as if I will profit about $3500 over what I owe on the car. Im not gettin too excited because we all know that people just like to talk sh*t , but incase this guy does come through and buy it from me I was just wondering what you guys would buy for your car if you had $3500 to spend on it? I already have (Headers, exhaust, intake, tuner, h pipe, body kit, hood, wheels, short throw, tv, springs, neon, tint) so if you had my car what would you do next? I was thinkin either the SSMS Stage 3 Power Pack or a blower?

Agreed. 4.3L stroker first and then H/C/I if you can afford it. www.supersixmotorsports.com

Forged internals would be stronger pistons and connecting rodsat least...
I'mpretty sure it's more than just that...
Not sure wut all it includes...
Haven't looked into it...
And from wut I understand the stroker is a different crank shaft or connecting rod length that changes ur engine from a 3.8l to a 4.2 or 4.3l...
I think it's the crank...
But again...
Not sure...
Forged internalsstrengthen ur engine and allows u to take more supercharger or turbo boost...
Whichever u prefer...
NYstang and mysteed will be able to fill u in better than me...
I'm sure they know a ****load more than I do about this...

Good luck!

Either choice sounds good to me. I would just go with the power pack though
