need some advice!
ok to start with ive got an 89 rs with the plain jane 305/700r4 set up and im wantin to step it up a little bit. its got a straight body with only one med. sized dent in the pass. side fender, so to me its worth fixin up. i was thinkin about doin a mild 350 tpi build up with the following parts.
Item# 350-3870
Item# 350-3860
in also wanting to upgrade the valve train but im un-sure on which parts to use. im going for torque more than horsepower. i was also thinking about the vortec fast burn heads but thats just an idea.
also i was wondering about transmissions. im wanting a manual, but the question is a t5, or t56?
then comes the question of rearends. i was thinkind about a 4th gen with disc brakes and a 3.73 gear ratio and an aluminum drive line. all opinions will be taken into consideration.
