As far as power goes, well i would like to think as far as hp id like to see 350. thats what i have come up with after i look at the lengthy list of all the stuff i have done to this car, but then reality kicks in and i feel like especially with the current heads that may not be likely. If your actually interested i posted up all the mods in the reply to the last quote in this post. Im just curious of other people's opinions.
wow, nice work man!!Thanks everyone
i know i remember painting the engine and making it look all nice and thinkin "ya this is going look so good in there" then after all the accessories go in its likelooks real good. i always hated that you take all that time to make the block all nice and pretty and by the time you put on all your accessories and get it back in the car you cant even see the damn thingits still always worth it IMO.
Thank you.
