the guy i'm taking it to is also our Fire Dept. mech. and he also used to work full-time at our local Chevy dealer.
he also mentioned going carb'd as well!!
i'm starting to realize alot about the '84's!! POS!! but the body is in good shape, needs paint and a few other minor things!!

I know some people getting decent power out of the crossfire but for your budget you would probably be better off going carbed with some reasonably priced Trick Flow or Edelbrock heads, and a good cam.

Ask for Dom...
One of the ZR-1 boyz, Dom, ported his 84 crossfire and ran (I believe he said) in the 13s with it. It was a DIY project, but he is pretty handy at customizing the computer fueling tables, spark, etc. too.
Goto the ZR-1 Net Registry and ask for XfireZ51, or Dominic Sorrenso (sp?) on the CF ZR-1 board. Dom is a great guy and may be able to work some magic on that L83!
