what do you think about my future 305 tpi setup

this is what i have lined up for my lil'305

stock 97 lt1 cam, fully ported 081 castings with a 3 angle valve job, stock ported base and port matched, portmatched stock runners, ported plenum, stock tb

what you guys think?

what kind of power you think it will make?

sould be a a pretty nice sleeper since when you look under the hood its a stock 305

thanks

It looks really good but I would look into some chip work along with at least a better base and runners. You are going to kill your top end even with "worked over" stock TPI parts.

i figured that much but i will run it on the stock chip for now and it should run desent until i ahve the time to program my own or money for an ed wright chip

as for the tpi parts it would only be for now

i want to do this as low buck as i can

i will see if i can get some used pieces for the boards and ebay

but with the stock tpi stuff it will be quite torqy
