ok, you have Speed Density, so you basically do what ever you want to that engine other than a big cam. The biggest restrictor to power is your stock intake, followed by your headers, then throttle body and heads.

RE: Completely new, looking for advice.
dude id worry about the simple things before i got into it. put your catback on with a good x or h-pipe, 3:73 or 4:10 gears(depends on how much gas mileage you want) then id get into a good tune up just to make sure yur runnin smooth. then i would really go with a maf conversion since its not hard to do and will help you greatly with this motors future. then just work your way into the motor. itll come together then
