I'm a huge believer in the Vic. Jr heads, Edelbrock or TFS intake and a Jay Allen or Kennedy's Dynotune cam. It's a good solid combo and won't cost you a million bucks.
I have to give huge props and thanks to Todd from rochesterracing.com for all the pictures. Obviously mine is the Green '84, Bill Drake from Rochester owns the Blue '92 which is a mid 9 second car and I'm not sure who owns the red fox...
