I may be the only one on here that will tell you this but supercharge it, when I was young I had a '56 chevy pickup with a pretty much stock 350 motor & 350 automatic, I installed a 6/71 blower in a day and took it to the drag strip and never turned over 5300 rpms and knocked out a 14.00 with a heavy refrigerator shaped pickup, many people think superchargers are expensive & exotic, when if you put a pencil to adding 150+ horsepower per dollar they can be the cheaper expense (except nitrous), and after 30 years I can sell my blower setup for more than the 2000 I paid for it in 1989 (thats right a performance add on that actually appreciates!) Don't let people say the motor has to be "built" to add a supercharger (read Pat Ganahls Street Supercharging book) I ran 6 lbs on a stock motor for many years! Best of luck and this is only MY opinion! Best of luck Matt
