is there any chance of getting a little bit more power out, my dawg is starving. i just wanna be able to get up and go, not tag along the back of someone everytime i drive. something like 110-150 horses

The only thing I really know about is you can put on a weber carb and a header, also boring out the cylinders but that cost mad money I heard!

there's not much, and it's not really worth it honestly....just keep it simple and reliable

if you want more power swap something else in, your best bet

my buddys got a 5.0HO f.i. in his dawg, that thing just blows off the tires

what i was planning for a motor upgrade was a turbo, i did alot of research and ive come up with a way to turbo the stock motor using stock internals
using the probe/mx6 turbo and manifold with injectors, u will have easaly 6-7 lbs of boost, there is more to the swap but i really dont feel like geting into the details but i will do this to my other project bseries in my driveway

I got a Cobra IRS off ebay for 800 shipped and you can prob get a junkyard carb 302 for about 500 bucks.
