New exhaust, new computer, new filter, new spark plugs, new ignition.

Thats about all I can think of for pretty much bolt-ons.

 

[updated:LAST EDITED ON 08-Aug-02 AT 02:20 PM (EST)]Vemon perfomance chip is a badass chip they claim you can gain up too 25% more HP and Torque they sounds hard to believe but i've heard some good things about it cost around $300 bucks www.vemonperformance.com. You can buy or have your old Intake upper and lower manifold ported, and polished. Edelbrock has a nice performer intake along with a 56mm and a 61mm throttle body. Also get some new injectors like some 24lbs instead of the 19lbs, along with the fuel you can buy new pumps boost your flow rate "gpm" and get a adjustable fuel pressure regualator and crank the pressure a little more. If you dont use your AC you can always pull it out that will give you some power. Run all synthendic oils "i know i spelled it wrong" that free's like 4hp and i'm talking about changing all the oils motor, tranny, front and rear end, transfer case. Could put some NOS on your truck too seen it done on a 88 F150 with a 302 truck was fast. Ignition is a good thing to have I put some new "live wires" "$99 bucks" on my truck and seemed to run a little better, also i'm running denso iridium plugs "$15.99" per plug, along with a MSD efi coil "$54.76" and a Off road box "$132.95". I spent way to much money on this setup but i didnt care i had enough bling bling at the time. Gibson makes a nice exhaust setup its a little pricey but i think its worth it they have a 3" stainless steel cat back system for less than 400 bucks and it sounds really nice. well hope this helped a little.

One word of caution. If you have a carb instead of EFI be sure and get all of the needed info and adapters you'll need. A standard holley carb does not fit on a ford 351 truck w/o a ton of tweaking and little silly parts that are a pain to get a hold of. I'm not sure if this is the case with the truck avenger carb they just came out with since we know that most cool old hot rods are GM and most cool old trucks are fords maybe holley actually had someone study a ford motor instead of a pep boys special 350 chevy when they designed the carb for trucks. Any how be careful on the upgrades, its my experience that once you start changing things you open up pandora's box and end up changing everything.
