i think he was saying to get eldebrock heads, eldebrock cams, and eldebrock intake. Its a good company.

A stroker kit like said is a good way of getting a bigger displacement for more power

Edelbrock is one of the better / cheaper ones to go with.. Go to www.jegs.com and http://www.summitracing.com/ and sign up for a catalog...skim through it and see what they have...they have combos that do all the guess work for you with heads/cam and intake..and some even have carbs.. First step is a set of long tube headers.
