I have a 1981 SC Targa with a 'fresh' 83 SC Engine. The car is totally stock and runs like a purring kitten. However, I want to find a cost effective way to increase the horsepower. I am trying to avoid removing the engine if possible and completing a rebuild. I have read the backdating the headers and heat exchangers will make a good improvement... what else would you suggest to get more power to the wheels? Also, I do use this car as a daily driver on nice days...so reliability is a needed.
Thanks for your help!!

Unless you are running at WOT often, think about getting your box regeared. While not more HP, you may just have your torque peaks (the thing that snaps your head back) in a more reasonable place.
