advice on next upgrade??

[Anonymous]

O.K, I am looking for advice on the next few upgrades I should be looking into for my 66 coupe. So far I have added oz head, headers 2' exhaust, roller tipped rockers, hipo balancer, dizzy 2 w/ msd box, chrome export brace shock tower brackets and monte carlo bar. T-5 from 4 cyl mustang, sequential tail lights and some other small things. I am going to add flaming river tilt column for my pony wheel but after that I would like some opinions on good upgrades to make. Any and all opinions and info would be greatly appreciated Thanks in advance for the opinions and help.

Front disk brakes and a bigger front sway bar along with a rear sway bar would prolly make it a little more fun

Sounds like you've got a good handle on the powertrain mods. I agree on the brake recommendations. More speed/power requires better braking for safety purposes.

Any further chassis stiffening is good- subframe connectors and the like. Are you building a "handling" car, or just a cruiser? That will drive your suspension mods, if any.

For handling: Shelby drop, stiffer shocks and springs, etc. There's much debate over which kits to use or avoid. Lots of folks here have done a lot of different things.

How's the rear end gearing? If you're happy, don't change it.

The car is pretty much used as a weekend/some week days driver(cruiser if you will). No racing or heavy driving.
Thanks for the thoughts so far. The more the better
Thanks, Mark

Disc brakes then turbo!

How about 8" rear with limited slip?
