Probably not the most cost effective way to go fast.

That engine is under square and designed for low end torque while delivering outstanding economy.

You would be far better off to find a running 500 C.I. engine and swap it in.

Rear axle ratio is 2.41:1 in RWD cars that year. 3.23:1 and higher really wake it up but kiss fuel economy goodbye.

Don't bother with anything other than a posi unless you like making smoke while the guy in the other lane disappears.
