Gears, gears, and more gears!!! Then spend the rest on subframe connectors, pulleys, etc.

Gears and nitrous, and you will probably ahve money left over for a good shifter.

you have two major ways to go for a lot of power. . .no wait 3.

1. buy the aforementioned used blower
2. save up another $1000 and buy an h/c/i swap
3. Buy a nitrous kit

any 3 of the ways will give you good power.
i would say 1 would be a good choice.
