Well, so I have a "soon-to-be-intercooled" '85. I'm going to see what it can do, essentially, I've modified the intake (gutted the inside and opened up the ports) and I'm running a big-neck stock '87 IC as a front mount. I currently have a TA33 (roughly equivalent to a TA49) from Limit and some 009's, and I want to see what it can do this season, I'm hoping 12-flat should be doable, with an 11.90 as the goal.

Thinking ahead to next year, I'd like to move up injector sizes a bit and get either some 50's or try the new 60's (funds weren't there for the group buy:(), switch to a Powerstroke FMIC, and try a TA60 and 3000-stall. I figure with a solid, lo-mileage TA33 and and 009's, I can recoup some of my investment, and shoot for mid-low 11's. Is this possible, or am I on :canabis:?

EDIT: I should mention, the heads are going to be ported to the intake as well, with a 3 angle valve job, and I may spring for a Speedpro 204/214 while I'm at it.
