This is some ides I have for the car. I would like som feedback on my ides...

Its a C4 1991 6spd.

First I have toughts of swapping the stock EFI to a HALLTECH E6H. Why? I whant to be abel to fine tune and monitor the set-up in the best way possibel, and I dont like the ide to burn new chips all the time. And because I whant to go the supercharger route in the future. ANd I think that its a good investment what ever you whant to do with the car in the future..

Then is of course headers and exhuast.

Im thinking of keep my heads "stock", just a match port jobb, increase the comp buy using a diffrent gasget and add RRs, for now. And next year get som AFRs, or dart pro heads. I save that money for the HALLTECH e6 instead.

And instead of get a custom cam for $700, im thinking of get a LT4 hot cam kit? What do you think? Is it to "mild" Please come with ides. I think its a pretty good kit with RRs, springs and all.

The intake is going to be "unik".
Its going to be a stealth ram with custom made plenum to fit under the C4 hood. Im going to do the mods to the intake myself, with guidence from a mec here in Sweden that have already done this.

Then next year, (if I dont get fired for surfing to much on the job)...:

forget bottom end.
AFR heads.
Intercooled Supercharger.

Does this sound like a good start?

Im pretty sure this combo is good for 350/360 hp at the crank. And with AFR heads, mayby 400is possible?
And this is going to cost me around $2500 including the porting/gasgets etc.

Regards.
 
Sounds like a good plan since you are going to install a Supercharger..

But why not just wait and do it all at once.. I think that way i would attack it is this:

Get the Haltech and install it since you know the motor is running..
Since you are going to rebuild the bottom end with Forged components, I would wait and just buy the cam and heads when you install the Supercharger, get everything to match for your combo to make the best possible horsepower
 
ok.

But I think my combo is good for a supercharger, the LT4 hotcam , and the heads can I swap anny time. I cant afford the supercharger and bottom end next summer.

Sure you can swap heads at any time.. but is the LT4 hot cam going to be a good match for the heads?

You could install the Hot Cam now and run with that.. I think if you can find a Spare Small block to start building up your Supercharger motor.. Since you will want less compression for the supercharger.. then swap them when the new motor is ready
 
good ide.

What do you think I can get with hot cam 1,6rr, headers,stealthram, and stand-alone EFI?
And what shortblock is good to start with?

Thanks
