a bigger block!
depends on your budget, good engine mods are inlet manifolds, chipps ect but these come at a price.
theres no magic wand if you want power you have to pay for it

and have the car run like a bag of shite meantime ????
You have to plan 
If your going to do worthwhile engine 'mods'.... not talking mafco HT leads no shit 
cams, manifolds, etc etc
If you arent getting it all done at once. consider getting a UNICHP at the same time as the cams at least.... you will not want a car that does'nt run as it 'could'

Oh yeah course there is main factor involved when doing it the way i described that is "money" ok so mod your engine with bolt on & so on, once this is done a trip to your local tuners will set the car up to run at its fulll potencial of course if you have the cash do it all at once.
