free mods?
let's see (these include "sorta" free )
short belt to bypass PS , smog --- $20
iced intake --- $1
ram-air ---- $5 worth of dryer hose and a large mouth funnel, I prefer red ![[Big Grin]](biggrin.gif)
bumped timing to 12-14 degrees, sorta free but might require 89 to 91 gas
remove air silencer---- free
remove weight---- now that's free!

Well to be honest, unless you do heads, cam, intake or a power adder it's gonna feel slow compared to your Camaro. So IMO, I'd focus on the Camaro for speed. There are some cheap things you could get and used parts in good shape are easy to find but again that's money that could go towards your Camaro. If the 5.0 is a daily cruiser then I'd leave it alone. It'll be very reliable and there's no sense in having 2 project cars at the same time. Shade tree covered the free mods.

don't forget the 180 degree thermostat and the TPS set to (precisely) 0.9872456245724570824507245
that second part is a joke

Head gaskets were blown out. Everything is apart and I'm waiting for my heads to come back. Mike's car is down as well. He's swapping the intake and the clutch.

I'm running just standard gaskets. I'm gonna use studs this time. They blew out because the motor overheated from a water pump hose that was loose.
