If you have a v8, swapping the intake and the carb to a small 4bbl will make a noticeable difference. Just choose the brand you like. But if you have emissions inspections, it may not pass. Also, if your distributor doesn't have a vacuum advance on it, you should swap it out too.

Gas mileage when I keep my foot off the gas is alot better. and horsepower is SOO much better. I havent had it dyno'ed yet but just swicthin from the 2brrl to a 4brrl was a great increase but the add the headers and wow what a difference. heres a link to pics of everything before and after.
