Sweet Kweb! I am glad you got your car running right!!! Boost is a blast! So, When are you going to the track?

I'd say H/C/I

And +1 to boost being a blast, never driven super charged stuff, but I have driven turboed vehicles, and as that thing spools you can just feel the power roll on. It's a great feeling.

These are some good questions for me keep it going LOL I am working on a similar thing . I have lol went the bass ackward way a little . I bought a 94 cobra motor 302 (bored 30 over) steel crank forged I beam rods and fordged pistons (around 9 to 1). I bought a 80 mm MAF,30lb inj,75mm TB, and I have a gt40 intake now but wanted something better.I have a PD supercharger at 6 psi with all piping ,fmu,booster pump etc. and a PMS engine system. I have headers (aftermarket),O/R H pipe and flows (40's) What should I be looking at for heads and cam?

^^^^Since you plan on running boost, I'd look into getting some aluminium heads. They dissipate heat much more effectively than iron heads. This will help to prevent detonation/pinging, especially during the hot summer. I personally like my Trickflow TW heads. But AFR's are nice as well. As for cam, a blower friendly one is what you want. The Steeda #19, TFS-1, TFS-2 are great over the shelf cams that work well with boost. But it's hard to beat a nice custom cam. Yo may want to also upgrade your injectors(42's). But your 30's will suffice, provided you run a 30# calibrated FMU. Good luck! BTW, nice looking car.
