...the manifolding.
First, remove those very restrictive exhaust manifolds and put them in storage. Deep storage. Install a set of FPA headers from www.fordpowertrian.com . Be sure to get the type that is right for your head casting. If you have C6AE-R heads, get the FPA headers for the 428CJ, if you've got C6AE-J, -L, -Y, or C7AE-A, then get the headers for a 390 Fairlane. This upgrade will buy you a lot.
Next, get an Edelbrock "Performer RPM" intake manifold and stick the stock intake into deep storage. Make sure it's the "RPM" version. At this point, you've got a 390 that feels very much like a 428CJ, and I think it'll cause you to smile instead of frown.
Stock manifolding is just not good for a 390GT engine.
JMO,
