Perf Mods to Crossfire?

Has anyone done or know of any engine performance mods to the '82 Crossfire FI? I've considered a crate motor.

I've always wanted to keep mine as original as possible too.

I tried to keep mine that way for 4 years I battled it. Last winter I put in a ZZ4 crate motor and got rid of all the computer crap. Now I have more time to drive & enjoy it and it's reliable now.

I thought of doing the same thing. It runs pretty good now being all original but I know that I'll get to a point where the upgrades will be necessary.

The engine is carburated. I disconnected the computer stuff. Kept the electric fuel pump, & added a regulator. New radiator with dual electric fans, no mechanical fan. Serptine belt with all new accessories. I took the sensors for the gages from the old engine and installed in the new one. Everything works fine. The headers/side pipes ment loosing the Cat & the O2 sensor(don't need without computer). I have Historic plates so I do not have to go to inspection. If you still need to go thru that then you need the Cat. The suspension, brakes, trans, are all new. New rear with 3.55:1 gears. All new or redone interior.

That's about it in a nut shell, I'm tired! Dave
