What to do next?

I have my mods listed in my signature and I'm please with where I am at now with my car but I'm starting to look for my horsepower. What do you guys think I should do next? I'm really not at a point to go S/C and I'm not a huge fan of NOS. I would like to do cams once a few others get it all figured out, but what else is there that I can do to get some extra horsies? Thanks in advance for any input.

electric water pump, ported heads, cams? I'm leaning towards 4.10s. not really an hp increase, though.

Heads and cams are going to happen in the future for sure. I have headers I guess you didn't see that in the signature. How much do water pumps run and what are the benefits?

I'd lean toward a set of 4.10 gears, everyone seems to love them in the NA cars.

Cheaper than a lighter drive shaft, though that would be good too.

I know this is off subject. But could you please post pictures of both your side scoops, upper and lower. I am pretty sure I want the upper ones. They look awesome. could you get some snapshots for me to help my decisions. Do the lower scoops come with grill inserts as well to match? Anway I hope you can give me some close ups! Thanks much if possible. Take care.

Not mentioned yet: Clutch, flywheel, torsen t-2R diff. Like a driveshaft, they don't add power, but free up and let you lay down more power.

If you were talking to me about pics of the scoops, I'm sorry I hadn't responded yet. I'll try to get some this weekend.
