230-250hp range, I wouldn't bother doing anything to the internals. Of course if you did you could well exceed 250 whp and it would be safer, but it's not necessary. I'd get a clutch that will be more boost friendly and thats it. you'll want to run uberdata with that engine (obd1)

Yes, fuel management will be your key here. If you have a complete stock reliable engine, then id feel safe boosting that puppy to 8psi - 10psi, you will make you 230whp - 250whp goal easily with good engine management. I do recommend pinning the block if this is a project car though
Good luck and if you do need a clutch, im the guy to hook you up

if you get a good sized turbo you could well get into the 300hp range with 10 psi and a good tuner..

I'd have to say build the bottom end with eagle rods and some forged pistons (CP's are nice)
