You should be able to take both of them judging by your mod list/car.

good luck


PS: nice car

The mods in bold add no hp what so ever, the underlined mod adds maybe 1 hp. I think you have him covered. You should also be right with IROC unless it's a 305 then you will blow it's *** out.

Exhaust doesnt add any hp. Oh and what is radiator doing in the mod list.

Well he might get a couple of hp from no cats, unless he just hollowed them out, that usually hurts hp. Some Irocs had 305's for sure in fact all 5 speed Irocs had 305's the 350 was optional with the auto.
