Ok Ive wanted to buy a 92 trans am with t's and a 305 TPI but no dice, sooooo I found me a 92 bird that needs some paint and some other small things. I wanted to know what kind of power I can get out of her if I swap in an L98 cam and heads with a TPI set up to this engine? Its of course a 305 TBI now . I know the 305 TPI for 92 had 230 hp and the 350 had 245 so I wanted to try and get at least 230 for now, Iwas thinking maybe LT1 top end as well, any idea, numbers?

 

dude, i would just WAIT until you find a car you REALLY want

you have so much doubt about this car already, and honestly it sounds like its a real mess

 

Because I need a car now, I need to get to a job and college. Im not douting the car Im sure the engine will at least last another 50,000 or so.

 

then go buy a $200 beater for now

 

I don't want a hunk of junk.

 

Putting L98 heads on a 305 will lower your compression, making an already POS engine run even worse.

 

Got ya then I will just swap to the 305 TPI heads. ( can't think of the code for that at the moment) lol Its LB9 right?
