increasing boost on an '86 tc Reply #16 – December 02, 2011, 11:24:02 PM soo, time to update this. I ended up finding a Essy head, put that on with ARP head studs, with a RR cam and an adj. cam sprocket. I have to admit, I was a little disapointed with the RR cam, but I havn't really done anything else to it yet. Its basically all stock besides the essy head and RR cam.The exhaust is gonna have to be done soon so I am planning on the stinger 3 inch to the ler then a good ler and 2.5 inch tailpipe. Other things on the list are gonna be a IC, (can't decide on a '87-88 setup or a fmic. already have a '87-88 hood.) can anyone point me in the direction of a good fmic? Do I need a bpv or bov? also, somewhere I heard that a fmic will cause a surging if not set up properly. any truth to that?I have a big vam already, just have to add the '87-88 cpu. correct? a 255lph fuel pump and K&N filter will also have to find thier way on to it. thats about all I have planned for the engine.Put a set of 11" brakes/spindles on it already too.Just got home from a 160 mile round trip and got over 30 mph with it, soo maybe the RR cam has a plus to it. anyone else get this kind of MPG?
