After being wrangles for almost 3 years I'm picking up a 89 lx roller from one of my friends and just wanted to go over the set up and get some opinions of what I have to work with. Car has a t5 and 4.10 gears, bbk long tube headers and matching h pipe but also come with Mac Pro chamber as well in not sure which to run I have no experience with a pro chamber. Car is carbed and the tank has a sump comes with a 650 Holley dp and a 750 Holley hp series carb, msd box, timing control box and distributor. Flaming river manual rack and shaft, no ac or smog, was a 4cyl car. Victor Jr carb intake.
I have a spare short block sitting that's in good shape with a e303 cam in it and a brand new f303 sitting on the shelf, have a set of 3 bar gt40 irons fresh from machine shop off a explorer that have been milled .030 to bump up compression slightly. Have a new set of the trick flow spring upgrade kit for these heads as well I just need to install. Question is which cam and carb should I go with from what I have here. Only thing I'm missing is a set of roller rockers I just have the stock rocker arms, been debating the scorpion racing 1.6 or the 1.7 pedestal mount rockers for it. What kind of Hp potential do I have with its current parts bin I have. Please no flames I got it at a great deal and I'm just so stoked to have a fix again after 3 years searching . Thanks
