If you are going to redo the cylinder heads anyway, something you might look into is 289 hi-po heads. these will give you a slightly higher CR (more power). You can also go with an edelbrock power package. They have all sorts of parts that they match together and test. They advertise the package with how much power it will make when it's done. This way there is no more guessing game. If you don't want to get that far into the motor, and being that the motor has such low mileage, i would go with Nitrous. You can do that, rear gears, k&n filter (the one that the lid is also filter). There are some other things you can do too.

There are numerous possibilities, ranging anywhere from 50 horsepower, all the way to 150 or so.

Hope this helps.
