Engine: What To Do...
#14
with higher mileage like that, i would get a thorough check over of the engine be for eeven seriously thinking about boost. a compression test and leak down test would be a MUST before boost, getting your bores scoped is also not a bad idea. while you may have good compression and no leak down if the cross-hatch is worn down on the thrust minor and major surfaces you will have a had time holding boost for a long period of time.

if you get those checked out and they are all good, then i'd suggest buying Kevin's FS kit as a reasonably priced boost option.

if you want to spend some money, i can set you up with the parts for a performance rebuild; pistons, rods, cams, bearings, etc even a complete built engine if you do not have anyone local who is a skilled engine rebuilder. Shipping can be expensive on a engine...

what are you thinking of spending?
