Advice on buying a Commodore

[Pickled]

Im pretty happy with all those things and Im getting a tuned memcal in the next few days too. Its a lot more responsive and gives you enough power to move the car as quick as necessary.

It has more guts than my bros V8 304 but thats a pretty old motor and everything is stock, it wont come close to newer V8s though.

My nan's corolla is quicker than a stock 304.

LOL what's that corolla running?

dgray, what you want to do first for more power is give it a good service, pretty much what 2DIE said though he explained it all fully. When the car is running 100% in standard form and has as much power as it can without being modified you can start modifying it. Have a look at MACE's products, the manifold mods tend to help with low down torque and get you a couple extra kw.
