well,you're gonna have to catch lee thompson and he's running 10.7x's so good luck;).

i'd say leave the intake alone(if it's ported to your heads),get a new cam w/~218@.050",use stock 84 head gaskets w/ge1200 sealant,have john craig stuff your turbo with the biggest wheels he can(it'll be about a 63)and getcha a 3400 stall convertor.

that should be a good start.convert your ecm to 87,get a 16 pos maxeffort and 55#'s and you'll be on the road.as long as you have a good scan tool:D.and race gas and slicks.

later,sean
