Exclamation Need Help With 1984 Gs

Ok guys i was thinking some of you could help me locate parts and etc. i have a 1984 Gs and want to rebuild it and do something like a carb blow thourgh system... Do i need to find the 12a turbo rotors for it and etc. I have already purched a 1985 gse-le rear end with the disk breaks and etc, and have started up grading my suspention, and have some carbon work done to it i have had the car for some time but i donot want to go with a 13b, at all. So should i try to turbo it up or just run it all motor with some nice side draft carbs or what im not sure what to do at this point, i know i am going to tottaly rebuild the motor and all, but this is my first 12a that i whave wanted to do anything with, i was young wheni got my first one and drove it till the seals went out on it and now i got another one because i liked it so much i would reallyt like it if some one with a 12a who has either turbo'd it or has a nasty set up n/a motor contact me at stsurfer421@yahoo.com and let me know what i should do i only want 350 maxpower at the wheels please please help me out on this one...again my contact info is stsurfer421@yahoo.com thanks every one........

Well, where should I start, oh yeah, please spell check and work on sentence structure. It makes for easier reading and understanding.

I you want to stay with the 12A and carb, contact Robert at Rotary Shack, other than that, start reading your *** off on everything you can find on 12A blowthrough setups. I see from your earlier posts that you were looking to go with a 13BT. Honestly, that would be a better choice for 350 hp.

Not trying to be an ***, just speaking from experince, mine and others on the forum. Good luck with the project.

Im about 4,500$ in the hole to my 12A-T blow through and thats just parts.
Custom manifold= 200.00
Turbo's= 900.00
Carb= 800.00
Intercooler= 400.00
Custom Pipes= 300.00
Upgraded Fuel System= 500.00
+ i have to rebuild the motor agian!!! = 1,200.00

All this plus the time it takes me!!!!
If i wasnt *** hole in debt for this 12A-T i would get a 13B-TT
Do it the smart way, SWAP IT OUT!!!!!
