Well i have been thinking of what i want to do my my car this fall/winter. Now i have only had her for a few months but i had a feeling this was going to happen lol. I have been thinking of h/c/i, stroker or supercharger. Well i have this week off so of course i spent most of the day today looking into my options a little more. I was thinking of doing a h/c/i and also stroking it or putting a supercharger on it. now this is on my daily driver (except during the winter)95 gt w/ 90k (actually i am pretty sure that the motor has at least been rebuilt fairly recently as the dealer said he that there was 5k in the motor which i believe is bs (the amount of money that is) and they didnt find out what they said they would but thats another story). I also need to do some tranny work as 2nd gear grinds when you rev it higher (debating on rebuild kit or g force gears + rebuild kit as i figure with more power just more tranny problems). I am also planning on trying to tune it myself as i live in the middle of south dakota and there isnt much around for good tuning/dyno shops. I think i am going to go with afm pms also will pry get wide band 02 and datalog software maybe. I know i need to get an aftermarket ignition box with it also as people have had problems w/o it. So i am stuck in between a rock and a hard place on what i should do. I will almost guarantee that i will do an h/c/i (maybe tfs track heat kit) and then maybe add the stroker/blower at the same time. I am leaning towards staying n/a as a blower isnt too sneaky and i like to be a little sneaky. I know that the supercharger would probably get me a little more power vs h/c/i but that isnt too big of a deal. I am going to get in touch with someone about the price building me a stroker shortblock or maybe even just having him put it all together. If i stroke it i think i will go w/ a 347 and am not too worried about going all out on it as it will never see any power adder. I am checking classifieds/ebay daily and looking for good deals on anything i am thinking of doing (pms,h/c/i,supercharger,shortblocks/rotating assemblys). Well what do you guys think as most of you have been in a similar situation as me? Right now i am leaning towards a 347 h/c/i (depending on the cost of the stroker honestly). I know that i am going to need the supporting mods no matter what i do (injectors,maf,tune etc). I am going to be saving up just over 1k a month to put towards the motor. I am going to be pinching pennies for the next few months. Well actually i am getting a new cd player for the stang plus 2 new speakers than some decent gauges and new tinted tails as mine are cracked. i will not drive it this winter so i may do most of the work then although the sooner the better, but if i wait longer just more money to put in it right? lol Well that turned out to be EXTREMELY LONG. hopefully you guys can decipher it enough to get an idea of what i am talking about. My brain is fried from all that thinking/debating.
