alright, i just want a little feedback/power estimates and tips and whatnot on the setup i plan on running

-starting with a 88 standard output, putting in HO pistons and rods, new bearings, re-ring, and a double roller timing set
-trick flow stage 1 cam (can get the specs if desired, its similar to an E303, but with more exhaust lift and duration)
-E7TE heads, stock valves, probably gasket matching the exhaust ports, and cleaning the intake side a bit, with trick flow springs, locks and retainers
-stock HO intake manifold with a phenolic spacer(most likely a temporary item)
-stock HO throttle body half shafted and smoothed out
-19# injectors
-70mm MAF from a 94+ mn12
-stock fuel pump untill i can afford a new one
-stock ignition
-u/d crankshaft pulley, the power steering, a/c and smog pump will be ditched
-egr, emmissions, and all that crap will be gone
-flowtech long tube headers, probably gonna run 2.5" xhaust out the sides, maybe ill run mufflers
-electric fan

as for drivetrain, im probably going to use a 4cylinder T5 for break in, and an OE replacement clutch, so i can save up to get a decent T5 for a 5.0, and my rear is currently an open 7.5 with 3.27's

as long as the engine is running good and clean, there wont be any problems, and i only have to worry about it once every 2 years

the only thing they ask for is cats, and full exhaust, which with long tube headers, exhaust swapping isnt terribly hard

not too bad, so that should be roughly 250-270 at the flywheel, and definatly more room to build

wouldnt do too bad motivating this car, especially with a 5-speed
