I can get one for under $50 for the entire thing, is it even worth installing?

I have a CFI (TBI) 85 ltd that I'm planning on making a drag racer out of. I guess that'd be a useless baby step towards mid 12s, wouldn't it? Or is there some power potential there by porting it out? I know the mpfi chevy intakes of the same era can support over 300 hp/400 tq

Should I pass up that deal?



This sucks, I was awol too long so stangnet deleted my post count.

Are you talking about the upper plenum and lower intake?
