First make sure you bottom end can handle improvements. But on my DD, rebuilt bottom end stock, I went with a BASIC RV cam from comp cam, edelbrock performer intake, 72cc world heads and 2.5 straight dump exhaust manifold, Dual Borla exhaust. Had to adjust the stock q-Jet with different jets/rods. I have a manual transmission with 3.73 gears. Not sure what HP rating, but has good bottom end and quits making power around 4500 rpm. But still pushing at 5k. It's fun to drive.
