I think a twin turbo setup would fit very nicely under that hood

Sweet color

Right now for this winter my focus is just getting some of the things not working fixed up, things that are wrong fixed up, and getting the interior done.

Next winter, the plans are pulling the motor, striping the engine bay, repainting it, repainting the motor, installing a good cam, replacing a few gaskets, and then kinda go from there.

My projected investment into this car so far I'm thinking I'll prolly have almost 10K into it

Installing a cam? Miss the idle from the SSEi? What about the carb? Staying original, going dual quads, or trips? (I like spending other people'* money. )
