I'm buying a crate motor from http://www.rebuilt-auto-engines.com/...49105279663.98

Keep in mind I'm keeping this car pretty stock, I don't need big power, but I want a little more than this engine provides stock.

So far I'm going with this rebuild L98, Crane 1.6 roller rockers, Dyno Don Headers, edelbrock base, AS&M runners (all port matched with the plenum), and a dual cat back exhaust, and a tune. Am I missing anything? I'm debating getting a larger throttle body; it doesn't seem worth it with no cam upgrades. Thoughts?

Re: Build thoughts

Sounds good to me. And, IMHO, you are correct about the TB; not needed.
