Or go all out on it the sky is the limit ( and how much you want to spend) Just keep in mind they made a million of these trucks and it's not like it worth a sh@t load of money all stock.
Now I had thought about this as an option already, I haven't explored the thought yet in detail but thought cam, head work with headers, Intake and carb. I figured maybe, just maybe I could hit the 250-275 hp with 300 TQ might satisfy me and still keep it unique and different in the sea of sbc trucks.

Anyone done this and have suggestions on what parts work best together.
