[QUOTE="01vert, post: 16858957, member: 15873"] With a 4K budget you are looking at a used procharger kit and tune. Stay at 400-425 and the motor under 3k will be no more stressed than it would have been NA. If you don’t drag race and it’s a weekend cruiser with conservative timing the motor will be fine. Compression and leak down test before anything IMO. Cams are expensive and expensive to install and unless you are positive you are staying NA they are not a good benefit / dollar ratio item. If you want to go any other route I would go the NA SVT route and add gears and some bushings in the rear end, lowering springs and a short throw shifter. You can pull the rear yourself for the bushings and just hand off the pumpkin to the guy doing the gears. Saves a few bucks with them not having to drop the irs. Not a bad job just have 4 jack stands for the rear end cradle and wood blocks to help position it. At 4K you have no budget for a clutch if FI and if you go FI expect to have to get a better clutch sooner than later. [/QUOTE]
