Looking for recommendations

okay well i'm in the process of finishing rebuilding my Firebird's motor. it has the carb'ed 2.8 v-6 and the tranny is the Warner t-5. i have some ideas for it but nothing solid. i want to turbo it and stroke it but at a later time. i want something with power but that is still daily drivable. any ideas guys??

Why bother with at old of a block? You can't even just throw a 3.1 crank in it I dont believe. If you're gonna rebuild something, at least make it a 3.1 or 3.4..

Here's an idea, don't rebuild an engine untill you can do it right.
