1991 305 TPI 5spd Mods - Need advise
I know this topic has risen many times, looking for some immeditae advise. Here is waht I was planning:
1991 305 TPI - 5 spd
Change the heads to vortecs, most likely 906 casting
I will have the Scoggins Dickey TPI base for vortec
The base, plenum, and runners are all heavily modified, ported, siamesed for maximum air flow.
Fuel pressure regulator
Plenum coollant bypass
LT1 cam
Really, what I am getting myself into. Will this combo work with the current computer and set up with no other mods. Anything else I will need?
My main goal is the get a little more power and still maintain the durability of the T5
Thanks Mike

anytime you make changes like that your going to have to have the computer retuned to get the most out of the parts, Id also add headers and a cat back to the list to help those heads breath better and get the most out of it.
