Change carb. to at least a 600 or 650 cfm.(if your originally a 2 barrel) Use an aluminum intake, bolt on some headers, 2.5 in. pipes with good quality mufflers, change plugs plug wires and recurve the dizzy. For Starters! I run a high mileage 350 (stock bottom end), crane 272 cam, edelbrock performer rpm intake, ported and polished 2.02 /1.60 cast iron heads, and a Proform 750 cfm race style carb. Full MSD ignition. Hooker headers, 2.5 in. pipes with flowmasters. Never timed the car so I have no idea its 1/4 mile times. But it sure is fun, and not too bad on gas. Stock rear-end, I don't even know what size gears are in it. I broke my 4.11 posi shortly before I spun a bearing in the 454. Starting over with the 454.

ZZ4 Crate engine. 355hp achievement unlocked Laughing

Is your engine stock? Or what motor are you starting with? As far as bolt on parts, you can get the biggest baddest parts out there, but its more about the right combination of parts to get max hp and tq.
