Default Any Ideas?

I have a 89 rs with a 1st gen. 350 in it. I just put new carb in it. it has a intake manifold. I put a cam and lift in it.I was looking at exhaust because i think it already has headers so it will sound good. Have any ideas of what else i should do with out spending too much money.

and with getting those horses to the ground comes a good suspension and good rubber. Get fatter tires in there rear if you can. 89 rs i assume you will have the 15" wheels. you probably get a 245 or so on there, but only in the rear, i wouldnt go any larger than 225 up front. A good suspension will help with your launches too.

yea i wanted to put a better tranny in it.
The car sucks right now..
I just put a new carb on it and im not sure what the wire is calles but its got a lot of slack in it. like when you put the gas to the floor it will stay in a high hear if i was in a high gear. Or if i just want to cruise through the neigborhood it will stay in the passive gear or when i want to shift i have to go to 6k rpms.

Currently my brother has a c6 corvette and he put black rims so he gave me the chrome set and i am planning to put those on my camaro. I need wheel adapters and the tires are so expensive.

Um, explain that a little better. Is she staying in a lower gear or is she NOT kicking down to a lower gear. What kind of tranny are you running ( th350?) if so is your kickdown cable installed, and installed correctly? I had to make a special adapter for mine.
