Cold air intakes will give you 1-2 ponies.

Regearing won't "give" you more power, but it'll make bigger tires easier to turn so you'll have more acceleration.

Electric fans help out a lot. Maybe 5hp depending, and maybe a .5mpg gain.

Other than that, forced induction is the only way to go.

The intake and exhaust has been ported and a truck is geared low. Electric fan is install

I'm not into old trucks much- cant you get like MSD coils or something? I heard older engines were easier to mod.

Z max engine and fuel treatment and e 3 plugs made a world of difference

[Raptor05121]

Fuel treatments are a bunch of hocus pocus. Shell or BP gasoline has all the fuel treatments you need. I fell for the Seafoam and Gumout scam when I was 16 and paid $400 for it- they killed my catalytic converters, and those E3 spark plugs don't burn any different than your stock Motorcrafts

I'm a big believer in zmax. I've seen how clean it keeps everything. But as for power. Not so much. But deff keeps inner engine parts clean and lubed. Not a fan of those so called "firecracker" plugs. I tried them in my 03 cobra "she is no longer with us". And I hated em. Went back to motorcraft and ran 9.40's all night. Just kept breaking up.

[Cody.kopp]

My mpg improved 1.7 mpg and seams to run better power seams better no numbers on power but mpgs dont lie

E3 is proven to burn better

You can do anything to a 300 that you can do to any other engine.

From what I understand, a small 4BBl carb, torque oriented cam, and EFI split manifolds are supposed to net the best results for a carb truck.

They made a better manifold for the 300s in very heavy vehicles, but they are supposed to be very hard to find.

Understand that the 300 is a low rpm motor and mod accordingly. Changing an engines nature can be very difficult and usually is very expensive
