I'd go the 174/250 route. You'll be right at 500hp with that change.

I'd opt for the dual plane (airgap) intake and 800cfm holley. Your mag is a great base to start from and what these guys are saying is tried and true.

Thanks for the replies, I'll have to do some homework to find a source(s) for these parts, as well as someone to do the install that knows what they are doing. My first upgrade will be the prop.

I can see where this could turn into an expensive hobby
