Pick my cam & intake...please

Well, I have a stock replacement GM Goodwrench crate 350 long block in my '86 gmc k1500 4x4. The thing is a complete dog, gets horrible gas mileage and i'm tired of it. It has 33" tires with stock 3.08 gears, so i know those definitely aren't helping anything. I'm looking to beef the motor a little, but don't know what intake/cam to get for this truck, as I don't want to spend money on gears...i've already dumped enough cash into it.

The engine has a # 1904 edelbrock replacement carb, which I think is hurting me as it's 795cfm, but everyone seems to say that this is indeed a stock carb. In the future, I will have to pass emissions, so I need an intake that has an egr hookup, and a cam that is also emissions legal. I do some towing with my ski boat, but the truck is an everyday driver, mostly highway.

Need some help fellas!
