help me spend 25000! sponsors and shops please chime in.

Title says it. I have 25,000 I want to put into my car and want to make around 1000 rwhp. Looking on input on the best way to go about the build. I want something reliable that I can jump in and drive 1000 miles and not have to worry about as it is a street car. It will probably see the track a couple times a year. A little info about my car.

jre rough idle blower cam
E-force sc
Id850s
Zl1 fuel pump
Msd fuel pump voltage booster
Dynatech long tubes
built tr6060
Stock clutch
dual valve springs
Hardened push rods
dss driveshaft

Im forgetting some stuff but thats a basic list of current mods. I think im going to ditch the eforce and go centri. I dont know if I should get a new block all together or just stroke and forge mine now. Looking for ideas. I do want to build the rear end or replace it with a zl1 rear. Thats a must along with a new clutch to hold the power. Let me know what you guys think and shops please feel free to PM me as ill probably ship the car and have a reputable shop build it for me as I dont have the time this year. Thanks in advance!

Wow, I could think of a million better things I would like to put $25k into, but then again, that's about all I make annually.

Yea I decided to keep it and build it more. It has to much sentimental value to me. I had my eyes on a zr1 but I love the camaro.

Gotcha!! $25k will go pretty quick. I'd sell your working block now, while it still has value, and step into something better.

Don't get me wrong, that's awesome that you are in a good financial position to do it. I would do the same if I could afford to.

Yup, inline 4, rear wheel drive. It was the SE too, so I got a moon roof and huge 16x6.5" rims,

You'll need more than 25k to make 1000 at the tire the only things on that list you can keep are: Transmission, Driveshaft, and the Long tubes.
