In and Out

Intake and exhaust

Always the best place to start.

Trick flow top end kit, with supporting mods (injectors and meter).
You need all the parts to do a top end h/c/i, exhaust and other parts can be aquired used piece by piece and added seperately making those parts more affordable with less money on hand.

Indeed....that Trick Flow top end seem to be the way to go for someone looking for a package deal. I hear the one with the black crinkle finish make the most power of the two.

Also, save up for some exhaust work. God knows after you get the engine breathing properly, you'll need it.

That is a nice kit but you might want to consider some other items as well. Put some subframe connectors on it if not already. Maybe U/L control arms, driveline items, etc.. If you can find someone to weld your subframes have them weld up the torque boxes as well at the same time. Making about 100 more rwhp you will want some chassis mods.
