not all that economical but you could pull the engine and go for a '95 cobra R tribute, put in a mild 351 with aluminum heads and some cam.

I was looking for any expirienced suggestions on what my next modifications shoule be. The motor is a basically stock 302.

Here's a list of my current mods:
-underdrive pulleys w/ smog delete
-Ram HDX clutch
-4.10 gears
-Steeda tri-ax short throw
-unknown cai
-BBK equal-length shorty headers
-unknown o/r h-pipe
-Magnaflow "magnapack" catback
-Eibach sportline front springs

Any and all suggestions would be well appreciated.
Trick Flow H/C/I package will get you to ~300rwhp.

Then you need UPR Products suspension with Strange 10-way shocks & struts and stick tires. It'll handle nicely on the street but leave hard on the drag strip.

I really would like to get that nice muscle-y lope, as well. Can you achieve this with the Trick Flow top end?

If you want silly lope u can use a stage 2 cam apposed to the stage 1 bump stick that comes with the kit.
