First get rid of the seat covers. Then save up money for a swap or turbo kit for your single cam.

I would save up for a B-series motor. Good luck.

well oviously a motor swap, I dont really like the seat covers that much either, they just look wierd. How bout finding some del sol seats or some teg seats for in there? Too much red wires in the engine bay and that iceman intake looks nasty.

In closing get some different seats or at least lose the seat covers, and get a swap! Also when doing your swap I would go ahead and clean that engine bay it looks dirty.

Thanks for all the info guys. I only got 1300 and i cant go spend 2500 on a motor i dont got that kind of money. What kind of stuff should i be lookin at for 1300?

hybridreams

For 1300 you should be looking for another 1200 or so

but the motor will cost 2500 without install

Listen to the words of this man.

Seat covers

Save...save...save...you'll thank yourself in the end. Why spend $1,300 on junk that will only get you running around 16 flat (or 17 flat depending on what you buy)when you could save a while longer and get a nice engine. For $1,300 Im sure you could find an LS motor or something. That will get you in low to mid 15's. Buy the engine now and save for the install later.

xbladr

why would i buy the engine now though wouldnt it be cheaper as time passes?

SoulSurfer

Probably not man...I dont envision people charging less for engines that are going to be in higher demand. Now if there are tons of engines just sitting around then they get cheap. Which is why LS motors are so cheap. They're a dime a dozen.
