Default time is on my side

hey, ok ill start with i lost my licence for a year (sucks) but gives me time to rebuild my 84 z28 5 speed it had a ****y old 350 from a truckwhen i got it, i put my bolt-ons on and then my crank snapped in half after over heating my car (belt came off water pump)so i pulled the motor and tranny out to start over with my new 350 crate 330hp380torque im keeping the 5 speed. So now i got no liceence,, the car i had for a winter beater (91rs) was pointless , i sold it for $500, the same as i pay'd, and i took a lot of great parts off it. Now i have a full year and the room to build my car right, befor i put the new motor in, im doing the brakes and ive painted the engine bay flat black so far and ive got my headers coated and got my intake sandblasted for clear . So ive got some things done but im far from the end.
Should i do the supention next before i put the motor in? OR should i get the rear end first? because both must be done and ive got loads of time, all i want to do is buy the guts for the 10 bolt that the car came with and change the drive shaft to aluminum, its not hard to do these things for me im just not sure what would be the best order. any help would be great.

Dude, you lost your license for a year? You gotta TRY to do somthing like that. Maybe you should get to work on upgradin the luggage rack on your Schwinn.....[8D]

Seriously, I feel for you. Do the rear end first. Of all the mods I have done, going from a 2.77 to a 3.73 was the BIGGEST improvement......

That sucks 84z... I see your from Milton, wicked, I'm in Guelph. I would say to put the suspension in first, it's more time consuming and a pain in the *** but it doesn't really matter, it's all going to be done anyway.
