Okay, so I ran into some tough times again. Within two weeks, the timing belt went out on the 97 minivan which already had no A/C (it went out about a year ago) and then the transmission gave up the ghost. It would have cost about 6,000 to get the minivan back to working order. I shelved the mini and got into a 2000 Suburban w/ 109k, 5.3ltr, leather/power everything TTL for $10,000. Sound like a good deal? Well I thought it was decent compared to what I was gonna have to do.

So, any suggestions on which mods should be first (no n20, Turbo, S/C, or LT - that's too much $$$...baby steps people!!). Lesser stuff - any recommendations?

Thanks!
