a 318v6???? must be one helluva bore/stroke combo!
as far as mods, it all depends on how much you want to shell out. a ported
throttle body and a catback exhuast will help out a lot. switching to an
electric fan along with an underdrive pulley will also give a kick. swappin
those 3.50's for a set of 4.10's would help a great deal.
