1. I didn't mean to 'own' anything; I'm obviously biased toward the 3.4 having done my own rig that way. I also strive to keep things lighter when I can. It's the same reason why I put a turbocharged 4.2 Trailblazer engine in my 68 Firebird.

2. Sorry if you don't like the #s, but it's a reality. Stock longblock- SC, 325cc injectors, Walbro 190 FP, Supra MAF, modified Downey headers, stock pulley pushing 6-7psi, my own intake tube, FTC-1, IK22's, Innovative WB for tuning, 3" exhaust, Snow water injection. This through a MC clutch, a fresh R151F, 4.56 (w/ synth) gears, on 31" tires. Wait till my purpose-built block & heads go in! If it helps you at all- I do beta testing for some of the aftermarket EFI systems, so I kinda know what I'm doing.

3. Yep- yer right, MANY 5.0's are OBD II; if he swaps over the ECM. My bad- most of the swaps I see are carbureted or TBI setups.

PS- GREG_CANADA, that is a sweet 89; I miss mine...
