since you are in the deep end of the pool.....
you should convert to MAF

why not do H/C/I......

trick flow kit , holley systemax

edlebrock intake , afr heads

if you have noticed nothing was said about the cam.....

TBA after other combo parts are selected.....

since it is a blower car you may want to consider o-ring heads....

with all of the above it will really get and go in spite of it being a heavy convertible
