I am ready to build my engine for my 71 164, I would appreciate any input into the best path to take to make it a real sleeper. The motor is a 75 B30F. My first thoughts are: 0.30 overbore with B230 pistons, K grind cam, new oil pump, new water pump, all new gaskets, plug the injector holes to run 2 SU HS6's, and lighten the flywheel. Depending on how much the engine work will cost (anyone got a rough guess?) I will go with a supercharger from V-Performance, As long as they are willing, to replace the SU's (early 2 bolt filter style) What do you all think? Also I would like to get rear trailing arms made, is this incredibly expensive? Thanks for any input.

Tim
