az 88 5.0

I have a 1988 LX 5.0 notchback automatic, and was wondering what is the best setup for maximum horse power with out turbo or supercharger yet. so far I have shorty headers, flowmaster exhaust, and an intake. I would like to do a cam, intake manifold, throttle body, fuel injectors if i go bigger injectors what else do i change? aluminum driveshaft, lifters and roller rockers, maybe heads? please let me know what you think open to all ideas thanks.

A stroker kit is a good way to increase hp. AFR and trickflow make good heads. If you change injectors you will need a mass air flow sensor to match them.

any chance you can elaborate on stroker kit? and what would be recommened fuel injector size? and how much for air flow mass sensor?

buy a 351 and start a build up of it on the side while your 302 still runs fine

A stroker kit includes new rods, pistons, and a crankshaft. It increases stroke which increase cubic inch.

Unless he's done a conversion, he's speed density and doesn't need a new MAF sensor.

H/C/I ( heads/cam/intake ) and you'd probably have what you are looking for in your car.
