		My old nissan pickup had a 8-plug 4-cyllinder engine. maybe
they thought it
		was straight-8    ;-)

		On the subject ot TBI 350 CI  to 350hp:

		a bump to 10:1 will get you less HP than you think unless
you zero deck it
		w/ flat tops. leave the CR alone if you're gonna boost it.

		forced induction is the best bang for the buck in that
situation IMO. change
		the head gaskets anyway though (high mileage car? severe
duty planned?) ,
		get springs, valves and a SC cam while you are at it. The 86
motor is non
		roller? USE THE 90!


		For your comparison:
		383 TPI L98, ZZ4 cam, stock lower intake, stock exhaust,
350HP (by trap
		speed, E.T, weight)
