400 more power
Hi New To the site but i have a 79 ford f150 4x4 with a 400 1000 miles on rebuild c6 new and np205 200 miles on rebuild. the carb is a Edelbrock Performer 1400 and Edelbrock intake and long tube headers. msd coil.
with all this $ in the truck u can see i dont have much more money that the wife will let me spend for under 500 what can i do to get more power i have heard that a timing chain kit.for some unknow reason did get an aftermarket cam for the rebuild my fault so i would like to stay away from the cam route. any help would be help full.
