he plans on getting one of these:
POWER PACKAGE™ TOP END KIT FOR SMALL-BLOCK FORD

The Edelbrock Total Power Package is a concept that we pioneered in the 1980s that provides you with performance-matched components designed and engineered to work together as a package. This dyno-proven combination ensures that you have everything you need to meet your performance goals with proven results.

To make things easier in the parts selection process, we have taken the Total Power Package to the next level by actually placing the power package components together under a single part number. That's right…the Edelbrock Power Package Top End Kits provides proven performance in one box, without the guesswork.

Each kit includes: intake, heads, cam & lifters (except roller lifters), head & intake bolt kits, a complete gasket set as well as a timing chain and gear set. Push rods and rocker arms not included. Simply finish the system with the Edelbrock carburetor that best matches your application. Kit carton dimensions are 12" high x 12-3/4" wide x 14-1/2" deep, approximately 98 lbs.

no, there isnt. there isnt really anything for the 2v engines in the way of performance packages, except a pi swap.

says in ur sig u already have a pi swap. is that just the intake that u swaped or did u swap the heads too? cause if u swaped the heads already then theres not really much point in buying new ones. and even if u didnt swap the heads, i would tell u just to port and polish the ones uve got.

there is no aftermarket kit for our cars...

Port&Polish your heads and get a decent pair of cams and a wcked tune and full exhaust and u'll be tasting upper 290's

not enough? by a supercharger and keep her at 9lbs and enjoy 350rwhp... if u want more get ready to forge ur bottom end, by an intercooler, and turn up the boost

the PI intake is the best intake for the 4.62v right now unless u have Forced Induction
