cheap upgrades

I just picked up a 94 5.0 to put into my 86 f150 efi. im looking to do some cheap upgrades to this new motor to help the truck out a little bit.i was thinking along the lines of long tubes,cam,and heads.i have been reading up on the gt40 p heads but im not sure if the plug angle will work with long tubes?ive been looking at maybe an e303 cam but am not sure what would be best.thanks
