Default a few newbie questions..??..

i have a 94 firebird v6 car that im doin a 5.3/th400 swap with a MP-70..i have the harnesses all ran just wondering on a k-member an manual rack.. is it worth the extra money for a turbo k member an manual rack or just deal with the stock k member i picked up for 50 bux??

you'll have a easier time running the downpipe on the turbo k member but other than that and weight i think its all preference

go with the T76 and switch your cam over to a GT7 or to a custom cam like this 230/236 595/601 115+2 and with a decent tune and boost your looking at 6-700 hp
