[QUOTE="cx-7heaven, post: 5463100, member: 579914"] On that motor, if you MUST use it, definitely get rid of the tripower, it is very hard to tune and set up. Go with a good 4 barrel carb/intake. Before you look at pistons, make sure you get some good heads first, that is where a lot of your power will be. Get a cam to match the heads and intake, dont just buy any old cam based on specs. Also, some decent headers and exhaust. Hooker or Dynomax for those. Look at Edelbrock for the cam/intake/heads. I have had extrememly good luck with my Jet stage 3 Qjet carb. Jet performance takes care of all the factory flaws in the qjet and will even get it set up for your engine. Just make sure to have your top end already picked out. To go really trick, definitely go with an electric water pump and fan, also will gain you some horsepower. get one of the new distributors that let you handle all of your timing adjustments on the distro with little dials.
