    He could get the kit and bolt it on. Building a motor, making a custom kit, etc, would require a lot more money, and would require a lot more supporting mods, like fuel system, transmission upgrade, etc. The Vortech kit is attainable with most of what he currently has.

    I have a Buick that I like to use for a daily. Very comfortable, automatic, great on the highway. I usually prefer to drive it around. If you're going to have a car that you work on, that's the way to go. I used to daily the foxbody, and still could, but I like having an auto car. The Impala is an auto, and I used to daily it, but a hopper is just too rough - especially without A/C.

    that kit is 4,200 for the baby kit, my car was 2k for the whole stroker kit, 1k for heads, and prob another 1k in clutch, injectors, etc, but for convenience he should do a procharger kit, with some internal work and such a pully change would yield some nice power for sure...soooo chris get on it but a procharger or vortech

    Ok, lets look at the nitrous option.

    A 100 shot would get you up to about 360 hp, and 360-370 tq - good for about 1 second off your ET.

    You will need a wet shot kit, plus an upgraded fuel pump. Don't forget that you really should invest in a bottle heater, bottle blanket, fuel pressure safety switch, window switch, etc. Don't forget to buy an extra plastic intake if you still have one and be ready to swap it out. The stock intake is bad about puddling, and has a low plenum floor. A wet kit can leave too much fuel at the bottom of it, and will blow.
    Don't forget to run a 1-step colder plug, and tighten the gap some - probably .035 or so.
    You might need to consider some type of ignition box also, not sure how your 2valve is setup.

    If I was going to get a kit for a 2-valve, this would be what I would start with as a base:
    http://www.nitrousexpress.com/produc...ils.php?id=950
    Then add this kit:
    http://www.nitrousexpress.com/produc...ls.php?id=1357
    Bottle opener: http://www.nitrousexpress.com/product-details.php?id=76
    Bottle blanket: http://www.nitrousexpress.com/produc...ils.php?id=326
    Window Switch: http://www.nitrousexpress.com/produc...ils.php?id=640
    Purge: http://www.nitrousexpress.com/produc...ils.php?id=253

    Total Retail Price: $1812 - and a Walbro 255lph fuel pump should run you another $100.

    If you don't like NX, Harris Speed Works offers a plate kit for 2 valves also, http://www.harrisspeedworks.com/prod...&cat=91&page=1. You will want a plate kit.

    Another good option is the Nitrous Outlet kit: http://www.nitrousoutlet.com/catalog...6&product=3989

    That's my point. It's not just cut-and-dry. I happen to have a full kit like the one that I listed. I've run nitrous, turbos, and s/c's.

    He should go with the 4v motor - he always said that he wanted to do it NA - no power adders. When he is done spending $10K to make 350rwhp, I'll drag him with a stock GTO...

    That is why i did what i did
    I choose to sit on the sidelines most of the time, i dont race for money all the time, thats the least of my worries when driving my car out there. Id rather have a fun run than to run for money. I love the sport and i love the adreniline rush. If you build a car to only do money runs, you wont get very far.

    I dont mind getting beat on by a ls motor, I tend to like ls1s and ls2s because they are very good platforms and underated from the factory.

    I wouldnt mind having a chevy or pontiac

    420+ whp, Damn not bad! Was that on a dynojet or Mustang dyno? Im around the same hp on a Mustang dyno but weigh more, so your car prolly moves out GOOD.

    A lot of brain cell destroying conversation in here. Mostly coming from the same peson's fingertips.

    Joey, car looks good. If I can make it down to ImportShowdown I am looking forward to seeing it run. You going to shoot for 10's this go? I think you should be able to hit high 10's honestly.
