EFI this time. Vic 5.0. I just re-ordered a cam from Comp Cam's XFI series. Heads are Aussie made aluminum that seem very decent. It's quite obvious where some of the guys are getting crazy power. I just want something EFI'ed this time. I am still looking for a 30# mass air meter and fuel lines and of ccourse it will have a nice shot of juice. I have a really light car this time. I couldn'r imagine the weight loss I gave this car. Your going carb right?? very cool Harold.

400 bux for the internals...damn steal! can you get a second order for me and I give you an extra hundred for yourself? seriously.....

i will ask if he has any other stuff laying around.i love efi but the cost for the buget builder is not fesible.you have to run a huge mass air meter and throttle body.i also heard that you would want to run a box style upper to get the max power out of the efi.

this Vic intake is not too much bigger than the bread box style. I'm starting with 30# so I need a nice MAF for it....I'm working on some exhaust. I'm going to take Eddy's cat-back....that shit is LOUD. EFI is nice....clean......
