bolt ons or trans
#1
this summer i'm planning on doing some mods to my truck, i have two options. 1. get Vinci Ultra torque cam (210/218 .551/.551 116LSA) and a maddog built 4l60e with converter. or 2. same cam plus long tubes, CAI, electric exhaust cut outs, wait4me tune, and maybe some 1.7 or 1.8 rockers. i will need to do the trans either this summer or next summer because i will be doing a turbo in the future, but if i can get away doing the bolt ons this summer and waiting till next to do the transmission i will be happier because i will actually be able to tell a difference. with that amount of bolt ons my trans should be alright till the next summer wont it? sorry for all the questions. any input will be nice

I would do option 1) with a tune. You will need to beef up tranny no matter which direction you. The reason why I did not recommend option 2), what if your tranny takes a crap on you in December, will you be up
