Easy fix to make more power. Talk to your machinist who will probably suggest a new set of pistons and maybe a little porting. Pistons are relatively cheap and if you think you will need more hp now is the time to do it. $1000 could make a very serious engine out of it. What carb are you going to run? Maybe a Quick fuel 750?
I you are going with a TKO 3550, TKO 600, or T56 you might consider some 3.70/3.73 gears and a limited slip. If you are just going with a stock T-5 you might want to leave it alone. I could make it go fast!
