I just bought a 454 mark IV with 62k miles on it its completely stock im dropping it into my 87 monte Carlo ss but i wanna do some upgrades while i have the motor out. Need some advise on what carb cam distributor and other outside parts i can put on i got about 1200 dollars to do upgrades. Thanks in advance

What year? Low compression peanut port heads? HEI already in place? Headers and cam will give you more bang for your buck. An RV cam will help with bottom end which is a better place to do the work then trying to get low performance stock heads to breathe with a hi-perf cam. If the QJ is in good shape rebuild it and go. Knowing exactly what you have will help in the reccomendation department.
