L82 Build - Best Head for Stock Cam
Hello,
Sorry as i was writing the post became very long. Short explanation
Car Background
1979 Corvette L82 Auto, 43K Miles
100% street driven, I don't rev it above 5.5K RPMs
Looking for more punch around town
Build Plan
$1500 budget
2.5 Dual Exhaust
63 Ram Horn Exhaust Manifold
Stock Cam - 224/224 @ .050 .450/.460 114 LS
Stock QJet
Vortec or Aftermarket head, what is best/dependable for 1000?
What intake is best to keep stock air cleaner for a 79 hood?
If keeping old intake pattern, is L82 intake sufficient or is there something better that clears 79 hood with stock air cleaner?
Are there any tricks to keeping under hood stock looking but unhooking some of the smog components?
Also, how much power do you think this combination should make?
Thank you
Miller
