Change heads to 049 chevy high performance ovals, upgrade cams, change to a roller rocker, use the intake you have or change to the edelbrock RPM air gap. It is the same height. Change to a standard mechaincal secondary, mech choke 750 carb, Install pistons for high 9.5-1-.2:1 compresion and you will be above your goal for under you budget in parts.

If you need more info, PM me. I have converted a feew of these 330's and they make around 450-475 HP and about 500lbs of torque with this set up.

Good luck with your project and keep it simple and it will be reliable.

I forgot also that the carb will be taller also. There are intakes out there that will work though. He can also cut out a releif in his engine hatch maybe.

If he went with a single plane intake he might be able to machine a couple inches off the top and make it work also.

He could use the stock iron intake and with the rest of the mods still get the 100HP a side that he is looking for.

100HP starting from 330 is really easy.

Hope he has good luck.
