I have a few things in mind:

1. Fiberglass leaf springs

2. Super comp headers to replace the why-try's

3. Skinnies & tires for the front, and some Hedman headers.

4. ???

I still have the "b-cam", but I think changing a cam with the engine in the car might be a tad difficult. So what would you do?

I changed my cam with the motor in my 65.I removed the rad, it was no problem at all.

I'd do the super comps for sure.
