Question Modifications and Emmissions

I hate to sound like some moron, but I have a long question. I have been pouring over the info in the I6 forum and have seen a lot of references to 4 BBL Carbs, Cams, Intakes, Exhausts, ETC. I have an 85, 300I6, 4x4 inhereted from my grandfather and the #3 cylinder is dead. I am amazed at some of the HP and TRQ numbers you guys have been quoting and am wondering, what of the above modifications do you think I can make to my motor and keep it emmissions legal, both visually and gas out the tailpipe? Any input of thoughts, ideas or criticism is highly appreciated.
