Little street and drag. Just looking around to see if I should build the lt or transplant something bigger.

If you think "bigger" is the definitive answer to power then enjoy it stock.

You can add a couple hundred hp NA before displacement increase should even be a consideration.

I just bought the car so I don't know much about it. I believe stock lower end with some head work and cam. Small shot of nos(dry kit). It runs 11.90's with nos so I'm guessing not a lot done the the engine.
