best EFI 5.0/AOD upgrade for $150 or less

[zac_f83]

name a couple? it's a 89 LX vert- has CAI, 65mm TB, under drives, full exhaust, EGR deleted, A/C deleted, and a couple other little typical things

I'm trying to find a decent performance part for sub $150 to help pay him for welding my SFC's in my 83 GT -so far I found a E303 for $90 but I'm pretty sure he'd need valve springs and a tune for the car to act normal/ be safe

this is what I have found
make a newer CAI for him- (pieced together) $???
E303 for $90
TCI AOD valve body for $150 shipped
lakewood 50/50's for $85

Rear gears?

[zac_f83]

here is the run down of his car-

ebay CAI
C&L 73mm MAF
Exploder 65mm TB
underdrives
A/C, SMOG, EGR deleted
BBK shorty headers
O/R H pipe
Flowmaster American Thunder cat back
AOD has a shift kit
4.10 gears
Tubular K member with poly bushings pretty much every where

everything else is stock

Get him a gas card lol..

Liking the 50/50's though. Or see about getting him the parts for an electric fan set up (maybe not a performance part, but should free up a few horses and help with cooling). He doesn't need any dress up parts? I imagine he has sunframes, but it's not on the list..

[zac_f83]

Yes sorry he has MM full length SFC's

I will likely give him cash for gas and pay for him to race at Rock Falls Raceway in Eau Claire WI when I go on Sept 29...

He should be able to run an E303 without issues, and without changing anything else. It's a relatively small cam.

the cam I did find after research was a Crane "B303" cam

I was told on Corral it would need valve springs to rev it decent and would be slower than the stocker..

Explorer intake manifold? Or a torque converter

Explorer intake manifold? Or a torque converter

If I can find either one cheap enough- everyone around the twin cities area thinks the GT intakes worth gold... ($150- $200)

Stall would be nice but IIRC they're $500 or so new for a AOD so finding a used one under $150 is gonna be a stretch

What about a differential support/cover?
