what do you think?



1982 GSL

gsl-se rear end

48mm dellorto sidedraft carb with K&N intake

Racingbeat intake manifold

S4 N/A 13b swap

5th and 6th aux port SLEEVES REMOVED

Racing beat streetable headers

dynomax bullet style presilencer

dual tip (and dual inner tubing) magnaflow muffler

all aftermarket suspension (i forget) like tokio blue shocks? or springs? energy busings? (they were there when i bought it)

regul challenger tires (205 somthing somthing)



what do you think about the setup? anything i am missing? oh, it has an aftermarket fuel pump i think...or a really loud one. what kind of power should i be expecting? its almost done. i just need to get the exhaust finished. the whole thing will cost me under 2000 dollars, 900 for the car, and about 500 for the work. i feel really lucky.

Looks like a pretty good set-up.



I'm assuming you're doing a complete SE suspension. Otherwise, you've got 2 different bolt patterns.



You might also look into an MSD. As far as HP, has the engine been ported? If so, do you know what porting was done? The fuel pump sounds like a Holley. They are loud.

it is on the stock port. but believe me, once i get the money, im getting it rebuilt and streetported. i think it is a holly becuase there is a holly fuel pressure gauge.



anyone know how much power i should be expecting? my mechanic says a dyno might not be the best idea, because he likes to push them really hard when its on the dyno. and its not a good idea for the old engine.
