hot rod ideas

Hey, I have a 78 f100 with a 300ci inline six, and I want to hot rod it. But I need some ideas. I have some of my own, but I want to make it as near to perfect as possible, so I am asking for some from you guys. Anything goes, from mild to wild. So please let the fly. It has no power anything, including steering, and no a/c. Pretty basic. Column shifter and rear wheel drive. Anyway, thanks in advance.

Put a 460 in it. Or you could put the FPP 614cid crate motor in it for all out performance!!!!!

Put some 4.11's in the rear end, that'll make you go faster than anything, including a new engine! TK
