Sudbury Canada? I spend a week or two up there every summer.

Your 86 car has the V belt system which limits you to a Paxton supercharger. You want a vortech or ATI. That will require you to change your belts to a serpentine system. The serpentine set-up was on 88 and later cars. I'm doing the swap so that I can run an ATI.

On stock cast parts you are severley limited to low boost levers. Anything more and you should go forged. Again, that's my plan.

Hope this helps, if not holler for more help.
