Budget 340 Upgrades

I'm hoping it is but either way the 73 pistons are below deck down in the hole so they really need to go. I was thinking I could do some stuff now and get to enjoy it some before it snows. My plan is to pull the motor tranny and sub frame and go through everything this winter. Sand blast paint and all bushings for the suspension. 12 inch front brakes. Put a kit in the tranny. Stroker kit in the motor. I know I don't have time and money to get it done and still have some time to enjoy driving it in the fall.
