Default so fill me in here...

im swappin the 305 tpi engine (rod through oil pan) for a 5.7l TPI 350, im getting a bigger throttle body, bigger ingectors, K@N filters, headers, and a custom 3in exhaust without mufflers, is it going to be a difference for sure or what? mega big power? ill be makin about 360hp (has some head work) i hope its alot faster, and all that junk, whacha guys think? also gettin a mega shifter, transgo shift kit, 2600 stall converter with lockup, b@m kickdown switch, corvette billet servos, and an aluminum driveshaft. Night and day difference in performance from stock with my iroc-z?
