Looking for some basic mods?

Okay so what would be the next step up for doing gears?? Sorry kinda new to a lot of this stuff (lol).

So a good starting list from what I got (really no order here)
1. Tune up and basic checklist. (90 percent done with that)
2. Headers and exhaust
3. Move up to a 4 barrel carb and intake.
So some pretty basic stuff really. Then possibly later stuff could be doing a different Cam and rear end?

Like Rumble said, don't even f8ck with it if you want power. Use it as a base to learn how to mantain a v8, then move on. Everything else is pissin' in the wind. Although you could take those fancy parts, minus cam, and put them on the bigger engine. :D

Cam, converter and gears go hand in hand. Get a good converter, I repeat, get a good converter!! Don't cheap!
