Help me make my decision


hey guys i'm kinda new the forum just lookin for a few suggestions...i have a 96 GT. with following mods


P.I. Swap, u/d pullies, Shorty Headers, BBK ORX, Flowmaster 40 Series, BBK Intake, 255lph BBK pump, 24lb/hr Injectors,4.10's,full steeda suspension.


and yes right now the car runs rich as hell but what i was thinking about was do i wanna take time and keep working at getting this thing balanced on the wide band, or so i just keep driving it until i can save enought for a 4V motor, but at the same time i'm thinking with the money i would spend on the motor and everything else, i maybe able to make some good power out of the 2V seeing as how i already have pretty much a full bolt on P.I. 2V, and i'm guessing without a core ordering a reman 4V will be in the 3500-4000 range, but i would be starting fresh. even a used 4V under 60K miles would still run me in the low to mid 3000 range. any suggestions ? because i'm figuring with the right tune on my current set up i should be able to put around 250 to the wheels...i would hope anyway....any educated input would be appreciated.

If money is an issue stay with the 2 valve. I have a 5.4 dohc sitting here with almost $12000 into the block and heads thats $4000 more than my big bore. I still have another $1000 in cams, $1500 for gears, chains, guides, lifters , followers and intake. If your looking for a quick 300 rwhp you could do a 4 valve swap and just be done with it and only have minimal bolt ons, if you plan to go beyond that it will add up quick....
