yea i found his site says 60mm for the renix engine. I'm sure that with some injectors and my cowl intake thing should be great.

60mm is the largest you can go on a renix, due to the mounting hole location.

Do the throttle body, index your distributor, get rid of the "crush" in your downpipe, get Volvo 746 injectors from Programbo here on CF.

Have a muffler shop make you a new headpipe with no crush in it and route it so it swoops back in two 45* angles instead on one 90* angle.
