napa routinely gives us the best deal on parts. a $5k a month account helps out with that! I intend to ckeck a few other places before I take the plunge but I think my game plan is going foward. I am really cheap!

Another question. When looking into aftermarket wheels. What do you look for? Lug pattern wise. Anyone know of a good company that offers nice wheels. And also, What is the best load range for a tire? D or E

wheel bolt pattern is 8 by 6.5 inch
there are alot of companies making wheels hard part is there are so many different styles to choose from. some includes weld wheels, american racing, mickey thompson, and many more that I can't think of.

you can easily weld aluminized it just isn't rust resistant where you weld it. rustoleum has a paint rated to 1200 degree's. when I do mine everything except the chrome is getting a few good coats of that

Sorry that was rude of me. For the chip i was gonna go with the TS performance that was on ebay because i thought it was the cheapest but i found the DP site. All i really want the chip for is the smoke. I dont really want to race Mustangs and Corvettes. And maby a setting to help my gas milage. What do you suggest? I want to keep it under 380 and if i want more il send it in for programing

the best thing to do would be to call them and talk to Jody and tell hime what you have and what you are looking for. he can then tell you what would be best to get. I have talked to Jody and he is very help even when you not speding money right then.
