I have Spectre air filters and a FlowMaster muffler so far. The motor is in great shape. Only 98,000 original miles. Again it is the 2.8L V6 MFI in a 1986 Camaro Berlinetta Sport Coupe.

Check out the V6 Board. You'll find most, if not all, of the information you're looking for there.

My ported intake manifold and lower plenum on ebay would be a cheap quick way to get a nice little improvement out that 2.8L.
