More power for 390 - what's the next step?

By Jeff - 04/16/2001 5:47:08 PM; IP 203.96.111.200

Hi,

Hoping you guys can help. I have '68 GT390 Mustang. Runs 13.3 sec 1/4's @ 106mph on street tires. I've done all the usual mods, now want to take the next step to gain more power, not sure what that is. Car is 390 0.030 over, TRW pistons @ 10.5:1, 270H Comp Cam, Holley street dominator intake, 750 double pumper, hooker headers & flowmasters. C6 & 9" with 3.5:1 gears, stock dist & convertor.
Money is an issue. How do I get into the 12's without spending a fortune?
Thanks in advance.
Jeff
