I don't see a gov spring in your signature that is cheap but well worth it.

$300 ain't going to get you to 350hp but i would suggest seeing if there are any coolertubz left. I would suggest injectors but that'll eat up you're $300 and your stock lp will not sufficiently support 350hp.

You could upgrade your fuel supply now, then injectors. My 5x14s have me at 350

Water/Meth injection should get you there.

I agree...Piston lift pump. I got my kit through Oregon Fuel Injection. Delphi pump, gaskets and spacer. That was about 3 years ago now..think I paid under $100. Then maybe a M&H timing spacer, or the cooler tubes might be worth it as well.

Once your fuel and air are where they need to be for 350hp then buy injectors. A lot of people buy injectors first and then fight egts and smoke until they can afford all the air upgrades. Fighting egts kills your driveability.
