What can we do besides putting a 340 cam and timing cover on it to get more hp and tq?

340 cam won't work.If going carb,long tube headers,air gap manifold a nice start.Magnums have low tension valvesprings.If you decide on a cam change,regrind your core for 100 to 150.Can reuse lifters,call Hughes for valvespring/retainer combo 1102(drop in upgrade.).

On another thread they said it could be done.

You can run it, but you'd need longer pushrods and obviously flat tappet lifters. It seems a waste though as hydraulic roller is low maintenance and they make great power.

This site is mostly about 5.9, and not finished, but check it out for a lot of info.
