ZZ4 corvette

I know this has been brought up a ton of times but here we go again. 85 corvette with a zz4 stock everything else tpi. Will this pass emissions? Now with super ram and runners with a bigger injestor will that pass? I know there is some one out there that has done this combo. And with the stock set up for now will the stock TQ be ok? As you can see i have do do this in sections. Any one know hom many ponies i will be killing that motor of with that stock set up?

Thanks in advance

The ZZ4 3rd gen conversion kills off about 40 ponies over the crate engine alone, if memory serves. The '85 TPI will probably kill off another 20 or so.

I am going to have the super ram base and get the bigger runners to and svo#24. Easier to do that with the swap then do it later. I know that stock intake and runner are a ponie robber. I will have a buddy port the plenum. That should help out some?
