timing intake pulleys exhaust headers and most of all a full tune up with performance wires cap and plugs…and maybe get a msd blaster coil and another one…advance the timing all the way…i have it done on my sohc works wonders…always run atleast 89…i run 91 and dont want to take any chances on blowing it up off pre ignition ---

i already have a catback exhaust system and im looking for plugs and wires at the moment… do u have any suggestions on brands or ne thing for plugs and wires? and also do u know where i can find some for cheap? i was looking on ebay but they charge up the ass for shipping to canada and also there wasnt many for the sohc on there. i was also thinking of getting an intake and if u know where i can get one cheap, cause i dont have a lot of money rite now. n my brothers a mechanic so i can talk to him about advancing the timing… thanks for all the good suggestions ---

Get a K & N if you are going to buy cheap piping. Using a shitty air filter is one fo the worst things you can do for your engine, like buying Ebay oil or oil filter, would you do that?? Theo ---
