Inlarging Throttle Bodies on crossfire

Does changing the fuel pump to and 85 and inlarging the throttle bodies make any horsepower gains?

Fuel pump should help throttle response, it helped on mine, but you won't get any more horsepower unless the stock pump is not working properly (the stock pump barely pumps the recommended pressure), and the throttle bodies already flow more air than the intake can.

When I got my 82 c3 crossfire I found the c3 site here. At the top of I Think tech is a sticky on the 82crossfire. You will find much info there that will fit your 84 also.
