I would save my money for a 350 but if I had to buy somthing,I guess I would get a dual plane intake and maybe a Holley 600 cfm vacume secondary carb. These parts will work on a 350 should you choose to build one in the future.

One word "TURBONATOR"


you have like 500 bucks, thats like 7 of them bad mamerjammers at 35 HP a piece............

7x$70=$490............
7x35hp= thats like, ...an assload of HP no doubt.........this time for real, for real..........
I have 12 of them stacked on my 82 ford escort which cranks out a ground rumbling 350 hp all due to my turbonators did i mention i get 93mpg city.................they save gas toooo!!!!!!!!!!!
MASSIVE SWIRLLY INDUCTION........

With the remainder Get some Vtec stickers good for another 20HP, at least.......



no seriosly guy save some $$$ for an L(T,S)1........

I remember when I bought my first turbonator...It was like the world was brighter. Leaves turned different colors, and starbucks started sprouting up all over the country.

yea a 600 holley is great for awsome throttle response. i dont know how much ur opening up the rpm's but 600cfm can be a little soggy on the top end in a 350. edelbrocks are a little cheaper then holleys, but still offer good performance, getting a 650cfh performer edelbrock with manual choke will cost somewhere in the 200.00 range. if u got the edelbrock 650, u can match it up with an edelbrock rpm manifold for about 160.00 which will give u generous horsepower and torque gains.

by the way, about the turbonators. i think thats a little negro-ish. if u got 500 to spend, do it properly, they probably last about a week.
