    Unless you have a Big cam & some engine work or a Stroker, Twin throttle body is a waste of money an time.

    286 cam, rockers, lifters, valve springs, double row timing chain. wanted to keep it under 6k but we both know it will go over that.

    thinking a 286 might be a bit big, might go down a few sizes, but i know thats not enough to get 200. maybe some head porting ?
