well i guesse we all have to start somewere i would swap in a small block and keep it all motor or a 401 would really wake that thing up

sweat the waynes world car !!!!!!!!



i say turbo it. the manifold will have to be custom, but i'd say a a smaller saab or volvo turbo will do since that thing shifts at 4k, (my concord did). that will leave you with super fast spool and not make it out since you only go to 4k.
and just pick up any ic dsm should do. then you'll need a carb hat.
