Hey guys, I'm looking to do a few easy and relatively cheap mods to up the power in my car, but still make it a reliable daily driver. i've posted a bit in talk, but i figured i would come here. i have a stock 302 as it is, and the new motor (goign in soon????) will be a 302 as well, B cam, stock heads, etc (t-5 going in as well). ill be a senior in high school, so cash isnt overflowing right now.
the B cam will probably be there to stay (for now), and i was looking at things like intake/heads/maf/tb, etc. the car needs to maintain drivability (college is a 4+ hour drive there and back starting next year). iron heads will suit me well in florida, where overheating is a definite possibility. is porting/polishing the stock heads worth the saved cash (as opposed to trick flow, edelbrock, or afr heads). im not a fan of holley/trick flow intakes, but it could be done. what companies for maf and tb? i've seen pro-m and edelbrock, and a few others. i'd like to keep it n/a as long as its a daily driver. pops wants me (and i agree) to keep it sane while im still driving it a lot, but i dont want to be stock either. all options/suggestions will be considered, and i appreciate the help guys.
