Planned mod's. Opinions? Tips? What to expect?

The car is a 90 350 T/A TPI car with an auto. Basicaly stock right now with just ford racing 24# injectors to replace the dead stockers.

It runs slightly rich at the moment but seems to drive fine otherwise.

The parts i currently have to swap on are as follows with prices I payed.

52 MM TB. (TPIS) $20

AFPR (TPIS) $2

Used TPI base to replace dammaged one. $80 for complete IM assembly.

Lightly ported plenum. I just knocked down the EGR dams and blended the oppenings where I could.

LT-1 cam (94 Z-28) $11

Bee hive springs (GM replacements)

1.6:1 stamped rockers (summit) about $60.

Cold air induction.

I also will be buying the standard bit's needed when the motor is pulled this far apart.

gasket set, new timing set. Is an adjustable set worth the minor investment?

Plugs, fluids and filters etc.



What gains if any might I see with the above list? What else should I look at doing while I'm at it?

I know headers and an exhaust should give bigger results but thi is what I have right now so that'll have to wait.
