to do it right, figure on about $3000. how much power depends on what you put in it. A cam swap, port work on the heads, headers, stuff like that will make a bit more power. Keeping it stock looking isnt a bad idea for that car. internal changes arent easily seen. Check out the F.A.S.T. or stock apperaing cars, they are awesome and they look stock.

Keep it close to stock. $1500-$2000 for a rebuild.
