Is your car an auto or a 5 speed? If it's an auto you need to spend some money on the transmission. Get yourself a good converter and a good shiftkit. If it's a 5 speed you should look into getting a shifter. As far as power, I think the mileage is fairly low, but you still should do a compression test and leakdown test. After that, if everything checks out I would go with an intercooled procharger P1-SC setup. If your compression test yields bad results then you need to look into a rebuild. The problem with a high performance rebuild is that it will cost more then 3000 to get a major power increase. You can build the baddest shortblock in the world but its not gonna get you anywhere without heads/cam/intake. Erik D. '94 white lightning '01 white GT
