I am actually in a pause, I need to figure out what would be best to start with. These are much different than Vettes and GTO's as I have had my mix of them both and this being my first F-Body.
Right now....
MS3 Cam, CC918 Springs and Titanium Retainers(Push rods of course)
Kooks full exhaust
Some mix of intake manifold and intake setup not sure yet on those.
Suspension of some sort (Not to sure on what to get depending on wheels as always)
WS6 hood or like
Tune
Kinda need advice on this as I dont really have options in kentucky/TN area.

Thank you all for the warm welcome. I will def invest in to some time here and see what's up. Just in general trying to restore the car and find its actual number among the rest of the NHRA package's that were built in 2002. Just to get some history with the car. Besides that I would love to just get the basics down and keep the modding to a minimum. Hardest part is finding factory parts without spending an arm and a leg lol.

Since many have undergone changes and upgrades over the years, there are piles of stock parts out there. I was also of a mind to keep our WS.6 essentially stock when we bought it in 2008... that lasted until my first trip to a drag strip back in 2009.
