I just sold a cheater NOS kit for up to a 250 shot... Never used.. I shoulda posted it here.. I sold it for 250 cash.. It was a wet kit that woulda worked well with your setup im sure.

Go get some used Explorer/Mountaineer GT40 or GT40P heads, and upper/lower intake.

Some head work and a cam maybe (but you're on a budget).... or like everyone is sayin--- N20 the way to go. NOS Plate kit, wet shot 150-200 shot.... you'll be alright. and some gear.

GT40 heads and a cam should do it, and you'd have the power all the time.
