Cool Just A Little More 'power'

HI GUYS

I OWN A '66, 289cid Convert. with a 3 speed manual with single exhaust and no A/C of which I'm going to put in durning this coming yr.

I want just a little more POWER PLEASE.

WHAT WOULD YOU GUYS SUGGEST.

I'll not racing or trying to beat everyone in the streets trying to beat the next guy off a traffic light. JUST A LITTLE MORE POWER THAT ALL I WANT

Let me please run this by you guys.
Here's what I think I'd need to accomplish my goal.

1~ DUAL EXHAUST: I WANT A DEEP THROATY TONE.
( ANY SUGGESTIONS ON THE BRAND OF MUFFLERS )

2~ A LARGER CHROME ALTERNATOR, SAY OVER 70 to 100 amps.
( ANY SUGGESTIONS ON THE BRAND AND WHERE TO BUY
IT )

3 ~ A SOLID STATE VOLTAGE REGULAR, ABOUT 125 AMPS.
( AGAIN, ANY AND ALL SUGGESTIONS ON BRAND AND
WHERE TO BUY IT )

I believe I'll need this electrical stuff to carry the load when I have the A/C on with my lights on and the radio playing. What do you guys think

I know I need a LARGER RADIATOR. Don't know how BIG or should
it be an ALUMINUM ONE

So that's about it fellows.

ANY AND ALL HELPFUL SUGGESTIONS ABOUT GEARING UP MY CAR WITH A LITTLE BIT MORE POWER WILL BE GRATEFUL APPERICATED.

GOD BLESS YOU ALL.
