I think the Elgin line is a good value and you can get it from Competition Products or you can get the Summit branded one from Summit. Add a double roller chain while you are in there. I'd then install a 2 1/4" exhaust with some Dynomax turbo mufflers. That combined with a converter in the 1700-2000 rpm range should really wake up a 350.

$500 should get all of the above except exhaust install.

Intake, $150. Cam & Lifters $100, Timing chain, $30, Converter, $150. Mufflers $70. Just round numbers but awful close.

Edit: and a $50 HEI off Amazon or eBay if you haven't done electronic ignition yet.
Thanks Mike, I'm gonna have to do some homework now. Definitely need to upgrade to EI.
