Start reading man.. this gets covered here every week. Stock motor for that year was rated 200hp and 270 TQ and provides decent getting around power.. but not great for hauling loads unless it gets more gearing. To get more power you simply let it breath, headers and exhaust, 1/7 rocker or a cam change. If you want real TQ for hauling or turning big mud tires then you'll have to drop in something larger.
