manual conversion, and/or getting a shorter diff ratio is best bang-for-buck... although neither will give you extra killer wasps ;)

I'm sorry to hear that. Welcome aboard though, we will help you out.

Commando has set you on the right path with his recommendations. The only things I would add to the list is an exhaust, extractors, a cam and lower the car in the process of upgrading the suspension a bit. It's surprising how much a 5 speed conversion, exhaust and a cam will liven up an older falcon.

161kw = 216HP
That is all. Remember, that'll be at the flywheel though (not the wheels).
