Hi All,
Looking to put together a combo with a friend, wanted to see if anyone had any comments/experience with it or something similar. Combo is pretty basic, is as follows:
stock 90 5.0 short block
Vortech S-trim
TFS TW heads
Holley intake
1 5/8" UE shorties
2 1/2" Bassani X pipe
2 1/2" Bassani cat back
stock fuel system with upgraded pump(s) and 42# injectors
It's going into a 90 Notchback, 5 speed car. Questions are, 1, we want to run cats on it to be emissions legal. Anyone running cats on their car, and if so, what is your combo, how much HP does it make, and generally what are your experiences using cats? 2, not sure what cam to run, but thinking about the Anderson B-21 or B-31. The S-trim will have stock pulley sizes with a powerpipe, will probably make around 10#'s of boost. We're not looking to make a ton of power, just good pump gas HP that'll pass emissions fairly easily when the time comes. What do you all think about that cam choice, or do you think there's something else off the shelf that'll work better? Lastly he has 3.55 gears in the car, how do you guys that use 3.55's like them? He was thinking about moving up to 3.73's, is the difference really even worth the bother?
Thanks
