Arguably too much duration/definitely LSA too narrow for a TPI. Plus, 10.5 likes a cam like that. A smaller cam that could live with the TPI will have a dynamic CR that's out of this world.

Wow..... is & a totally rediculous statement!!!!
Maybe people are tired of answering the same question over and over again to someone that has been around for 2 months.
By 28 you'd think that maturity would have sunk in by now!!!

So rather than get bitchy cause nobody handed you the answer........ why don't you

https://www.thirdgen.org/mods2
https://www.thirdgen.org/mods3

Does the engine have iron heads or aluminum? 10.5 Compression?
1.5 Ratio Rockers or 1.6's? .480" vs .510" lift Can the heads handle it? Stock heads won't!
230*/230* is alot of duration and will peak over 6000 RPM a TPI Intake will never get you that high.
Are you able to Prom Tune or know someone that does?

Sorry it took so long

By the way.... there's more than enough info here to help you out with whatever you need.
So I suggest that you first "seach" and then ask your question with the appropriate coresponding information so that a friendly member can answer you before you cuss all of us.....
