Default 1978 351w build

well heres what i got im just lookin for what you guys think ill get for power if it will even be worth it.. i got a 90 hatch 5 speed and i wanna take a 1978 351w from a truck that i have which was rebuilt 10k ago and i wanna get the typhoon efi intake off ebay get a 75mm throttle body some 24# injectors and a small cam and put in in my car i got the fox swap pan so thats not an issue and ill have the exhaust made to clear the headers im not worried about that part of it all im concerned about is the motor is only 8.3.1 compression from the factory so idk if it will be more powerful than my 302 the reason for the swap is my 302 is burnin tons of oil let me no what you guys think

It will cost you more than it's worth. Junk out junk in. Bad plan.

depending on what type of pistons you have you can possibly run a good 12-15 lbs of boost. then you would be making power
