That is not enough for a cam unless you plan on tuning it/installing it yourself.
Gears/wheels are both good choices, but i would go with the wheels first.

I allready read your thread, that's what gave me the cam idea. 
I got it now. Grey cobra-r's, then everything goes into the tma street kit fund.

I'm more a performance guy personally... I'd say gears/t-lok or look and see if you can find a deal on an 8.8 rear and install it yourself, depending on where you're at I know a guy on here from Georgia was recently selling a complete 8.8 rear for $450.

I say gears too, but a nice set of wheels isn't a bad idea either. Can't really go wrong with either one. After all.....gotta look good while you're going fast right?

I wish I had the $1100 right now, well I do, but I'm not touching that. I'd get all the parts for my heads, have them rebuilt and ported, then install everything.

would you rather BE fast or LOOK fast? if you want to LOOK fast, get some bigger, heavier, bling-bling rims. if you want to be a bit faster, i'd go for the gears or a nitrous kit with all the bells and whistles.

Fast will come with time. Just also ordered a tri-ax and intake spacer. But i am getting a new set of 2001 cobra R's from a co-worker for $250. Anything's better than those ugly stock rims.

i found that most people that concentrate on visual mods first, generally don't do much more than an intake and exhaust, and MAYBE pulleys. that's why i like concentrating on go-fast parts first. my car LOOKS stock, but is far from it.
there's also the people that say they'd rather concentrate on suspension first too. which is even more humorous cause a lot of people that say that are nearly stock.
