Those numbers are right for the 97gt. The heads don't flow for crap, which is why the torque is so high and the hp so low. 99 heads will work on the block, its one of the most popular swaps.

I think for 4k you may be able to get a blower and some 99+heads on there if you shop around. That would be good for 300+ hp without much effort.

The driveablitly would still be there, and its the most cost effective way to make real horsepower.
