Re: 350 tpi engine mods

With the power you are wanting, the TPI will not be your friend.

You could really wake it up by doing a full exhaust(headers included) Either buy an aftermarket base or port the stock one to hell and back, after market runners, port the upper plenum.

It will make a nice difference, but in no way get you close to the numbers you want.

What are you looking to do with the car? Quarter mile times?

The above mentioned mods and a nice TQ converter could net you some lower 13 second quarter mile times on a drag radial.

I have a friend who went 13.1 at 99 with the mods i mentioned above.
