Tune up!

Got a 94 f-150 xl 4.9l 300 straight. I was wondering what I can do to make it better. I put a flowmaster cat back, which kicks ***, but want to know any other good conversions. I was thinkin K&N, but is it really worth it? Motor runs good. Thanks Matt

I put a K & N on my 89 300 and I noticed the difference immediately. Besides, you can wash and reuse it and that saves some money in the long run.

As far as the K & N filter; it is a direct replacement for the stock element. Not sure if this was your question, but I hope it helps.
