Gents,
I'm in the process of fixing up a '96 K1500 with a 350 to drive daily. I'm done with brakes, steering, and suspension, so I am turning to power mods.
I'm thinking bolt-ons as I have to deal with smog testing in Nashville. My goals are to have 250- 300 whp and pass smog.
I have a rebuilt 350 with stock internals and dart heads. I'm thinking of the following:
*Upgrade the tappet to MPFI
*Magnaflow manifold back exhaust including new cats.
*tune
Are there any other mods I should be considering? From reading a lot on here, it looks like intake mods are not that helpful and I have to be careful on smog. With 150k miles on the truck, should I upgrade the distributor?
Open to other suggestions, and thanks!
