[QUOTE="brightwhite98GT, post: 319626, member: 10012"] Well, in NC for all seniors to graduate, they have to do a senior project. I wrote my junior paper on the restoration, and modification of cars. My car, is gonna be my project. I really only have the choice of restoring a car, or building mine. Im gonna make it work, by restoring the performance of the car to meet modern day standards of a sports car. My goals are to make it lighter, more powerful (305 rwhp is my goal), handle better, and put out less emissions. I REALLY wanted to put a blower on it with the cash I was getting, but it was either build up this car, or rebuild a car I really didnt want anyway. Heres the list of stuff to do to meet my goals: 1) Bump up compression, so 93 octane fuel is required. 2) Port and polish PI heads (and the PI cams) 3) Port and polish PI intake manifold 4) long tube headers, catted X pipe 5) upper and lower control arms (plus the thing for the torque box) 6) subframe connecters 7) tubular K member 8) new shocks 9) new sway bars 10) tower braces 11) aluminium driveshaft 12) 3.90 gears 13) pullies 14) shave weight (remove sdm, dog bone, ect) Thats my list so far. I know my car wont be at 305 rwhp with those mods. It would be nice, but it probaly wont happen. Any suggestions/comments would be great. Thanks [/QUOTE]
