Nah... he is starting with 110-115 RWHP... that won't be enough to gain 65-70HP

Maybe if it was a true dual exhaust and a agressive street port, new seals (so compression is up to stock) and no emissions

You know what?? You are right. I missed the '86 part. I was thinking 89+ 13b.

Dump the car...
You realize you're starting out with a base model?

A lot of NA owners want to have at least the big brakes...
