That time of year is coming and Santa (the Boss Man) has a habit of being very generous this time of year. My thoughts have been all-consuming.
What is the next step for the Coupe? I must mod.
I have narrowed it down to probably doing a power production increase this year. I will spare all the details, but I am leaning towards a very nice H/C/I set-up, and I could use some help.
Of utmost importance is the fact I live in California and I want to remain street legal.
I want to go with AFR heads, and after that my choices are open. I finally have my high school dream car (at 36 years of age) and I plan on doing this right and keeping this car. That being said, a 347 is something I will do eventually, but am holding off until after the H/C/I.
What size AFR's can I get away with for the 302 that would transfer over nicely to a 347 when the time comes? I would like the biggest valves possible without bending one. What cam is the "hot ticket" while remaining Ca legal? Intake manifold and T/B?
I do not drag race. I may go to the track someday, but this is my weekend car (1000 miles a week in a company owned Prius demands some fun on the weekend!). I enjoy torque, not necessarily top end power. A blower is also in the cards down the road. I do not mind suffering power loss now for future gains.
The car has a T5 (I'm 36 and granny shift - again, no racing), 3.73's in the back, Bassani Equal Length Ceramic Coated Headers and that's about it.
Thanks all for any and all input. I want to do this once and I want it to be right. If I could stay under $3000 I would be happy, but I can deal with a bit over.
