So I'm looking for some descent power gains for my weekend cruiser an 89 gt vert that currently has 3.73 track lock, full length sub frame connectors, full length shorty header exhaust and a black magic e-fan.
I would like to do all the work myself as I love working on cars, is there anything you would change or suggest I add? I'm not looking for ultimate #'s but want to make a big diffidence in an otherwise already fun car, what would be a reasonable guess as to how much this combo will help wake her up?
What I'm thinking of adding:
AFR 165 heads with the air injection ports plugged (in case i ever move to a state that check smog)
Trick Flow Street Burner or Cobra/Gt40 Intake
Stock Cam (Never changed one before not sure if I'm up to it yet)
New Timing chain
What I'm still confused on:
Could I run AFR 185's without notching the pistons or should I stick with the 165's as I want to do the work myself ?
fuel injector upgrade (also will i need a FPR)
maf
throttle body
Ecu tune (can I run this with a stock tune for awhile until I can have the ecu tuned without damaging anything?)
As always you guys rock and thanks for the advise
