Iroc

I might be getting a late 80's IROC and I was wondering what performance mods I can do to it to make some more power. It will be either a 305 or 350 TPI. I was thinking of a steath ram intake from holley, I dont know if those are any good. Thanx

i'm not a big fan of holley's aftermarket systems, especially fuel injection retro-kits, but to each his own.

spend your money on a pair of good heads, bump your injectors up to 22 or 24lb, change the cam, then get a custom burnt prom to make it all work better. then get some fresh cold air into the engine.

or get a vortech blower

Re: Iroc

Theres tons you can do to those cars. TPI kicks ass!

If its a 305 you will most likely want to stick with the long tube runner setup because its real good at making torque. If its a 350 you can get away with a stealth ram or a mini ram. You will loose some power down low but the engine will make more power up top and at a higher rpm.

Re: Iroc

Head over to www.thirdgen.org some real hard core Camaro guys there and anything you want to know is on that site. Excellent site. Really like those cars too.
