55mm stock TB

wouldnt pay more than $300-400 for used GT-40P's, you can get ported stock heads from Thumper that flow
better (GT40X flow numbers) for $600.

new cam wouldnt hurt, but not a must. Stock heads are really the
big choke points on these engines. maybe 1.7 rocker arms too.

94-95 have the 70mm throttlebody (87-93 have 60mm, 86 had 58mm). i agree about everthing else

86 was definitately 58mm. you might be right about the 94-95 being 60mm, but i really dont think so. i think it was 70
