Default MORE POWER

what else could I do to my motor to give it more power? I already upgraded my cam to a 585/590 lift 750 holley carburator, new distributor with 8mm wire, upgraded oil pump, weight reductions, got rid off all the egr crap and swapped engines to a 355 stroker...any suggestions??

Well 355 is not a stroker it's a 350 bored .030. You best gains in HP are going to come from a head swap. Edelbrock, Brodix, AFR all make good heads.

with that much cam you need a open plenum manifold not stock something like a victor jr and gears atleast 4:11s and a high stall or your engine will not hardly idle seeing as it will be riding on converter to much . we wont even talk front spring rates rear traction front end limiters 90/10 shocks battery trunk headers or did I just do it .Oh ya you can always put it on the boob (NO2)

You Definately Need To Breath. A Dual Plane High Rise Intake And Headers Would Do Wonders. Sick
