Next steps for more power - 318
In order of ease and expense:
- Thinner head gaskets for more compression. Try copper .021" ones.
- Shaved head for more compression.
- Bigger valves - 1.88/1.6 will wake her up.
- KB167 pistons to give a zero deck height and 10:1+ compression.
Non-horsepower mods to give you better acceleration would include lower gears in the rear and a higher stall in the trans but of course these have their own limitations.
