performance enhancements

I have a 57 ford f100, it has the straight six and is all stock. I am looking for a bigger intake, better cams, headers, and anything to increase performance, including superchargers that might work or require little modification to work.

Any ideas or resources?

Try Clifford Research. They specialize in 6 cylinders. If you want one already done, my buddy in Wisconsin just removed one from his 56. It has the header, new valve job, aluminum pulleys, and a T-5 overdrive transmission he wants to sell. He went the high tech way and put in a 5.0L EFI and AOD. Email me if you are intersted and I will forward it to him.
