Found a notch. Should I get it for the race car?

[4dStang]

I found an 88 4 banger notch with almost zero cancer. I am desiring to pull the motor, put in a DSS 331 and a TKO, Full roll cage, 12 psi boost SC and other things. Is it worth the trouble to get the car for $800 bucks when it needs so much? The interior and paint is pretty much trashed but I was going to rip it out anyway to put in the cage and paint it anyway.

The big question, What should I do for wiring for the motor? Should I go carbed or get a whole V8 wiring harness and run efi. I would like to run a minimum of 400 HP. Any comments would be appreciated. Anyone tried this?

well, are you going to buy everything or do you have stuff laying around?
is it just a race car,my two cents- if its not set up for efi It looks like a pain in the ass, so If its a drag car and you want cheap HP 400hp screw the 302 get a 351 or 460 out of the junkyard put a good carb on it and spray it, my buddy has an old 460 truck motor , cam change + 200 shot = high 9's low 10's
