1987 chevy need some ideas

Hello I have a 1987 chevy that I just traded my 1990 mustang Gt with a 351windsor for and will soon be fixing up. I need all the info I can get far as getting the most power out of it with out taking away my towing power and gas mileage because I still need the truck to do some work with as well as a hot rod on the side.

Things I am considering.

Rebuilt 350
Holley Two Barrel TBI Model 3210 Throttle Body Injection 670 cfm
Eldelbrock intake manifold PERFORMER T.B.I.
Cam not sure what to go with to keep my towing power and be good for everyday driving-hot roding
Headers

Any help and info will be great

I will do that, And I am glad you like long beds because everyone around me says they are a waist of money but I like the look and the space.
