Default 84 vette

i got an 84 vette and its in rough shape but its coming together i dont want to make it a hot rod but would like to boost its horse power a little would anyone know of a site where i can get some performance parts for it i can find very little but nothing much and while im bringing it back together i'd like to add some goods to it thanks..... also i had to fix the gears in the headlight so it would open and close but would anyone know if when i plug the motor back in dose it matter if the light is open or closed i really dont like doing things twice and i dont want to stripe the gears because the light was open and not closed when i pluged it in thanks again

The gears won't strip, there is a voltage feedback loop for sensing when the light has reached the stops

Plug it in and let it do it's thing....

I saved a link to their site in case I'd ever get the urge to try the Renegade manifold on my 84 - but I probably won't since I'm happy with my CF performance (I'm not a racer).
