That sounds like a better idea mate, she will scream then.

Is it 2 Door or 4 door?

She's a 2 door.

"Dad's got a NICE old HQ Monaro"

a real monaro? umm, doesnt want to keep it original by chance? why would you mod a monaro?

meh, his choice, anyway, why not drop in a 327... they came out with them.

edit* MY GOD! a 2 door and he is modding it???!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?! wtf man?

 

[crazybiker]

He's gonna keep the original motor.

But he just wants more power out of it. Plus, it hasn't the factory paint job anymore, it got resprayed.

i think im gonna cry.

327 would be my personal choice, but thats just my opinion. car like that needs to stay classic.

you can get a looot of grunt form a mildly warm 327. theyre a bit more $$ than 350 tho.

I've just been discussing it with greeny.

We pretty much have what we want to do.

A 350 worked with manifold, Vortech heads and a 232/237 .483"/.483" cam, making just shy of 420hp.

(pssst, paint it the original color please

Found some pics of the blow through set up,

Probably not as agressive as this one but you dont need a supercharger that big

This one is with a turbo and its a ford engine but same set up

This one is in a camaro, better looking set up

Hope that helps mate, capa and Haddad racing do the set ups

Look what had the better less restricted airflow....

It's in the original orange and mango colours. Just been re-sprayed.
