I am kicking around some ideas for my car. It's a 1994 GT 'vert. And I was wondering what else you thought I might need to do with a crate motor from CHP (Street Fighter 347). The guy at Coast High that I talked to said that the stock fuel pump would be good. It comes with injectors, and he said I would just need to get an adjustable fuel pressure regulator. That and a throttle body, MAF and dyno tune.
I am thinking that I would also do LT headers, and a mid pipe to add to my Am. Thunder cat back, completing the exhaust.
But I'm wondering how much else I should plan on. Like can I expect to keep the T-5 for long? What about the drive shaft, diff and axels? Any other weak links? (Radiator, thermostat?)
Coast High rates their 347 crate at 420 hp (flywheel) and 395 Tq. (ratings are for the carborated version)
I am toying with the idea of leaving the drivetrain (tranny back) stock, and using street tires, on the thought that I would lose traction long before breaking something.
Appreciate any thoughts.
