id go with an
o/r h pipe
8.8 w/ 3.73s
upper lower control arms w/ all new bushings
some lakewood drag shocks (or a similar setup)
torque boxes welded and subframes
once you get your suspension to par then start replacing the shitty procomp distributor with something of higher quality. that HEI shit needs to go
if i were you and the motor is as fresh as you say it is maybe a set of performer heads and some spray....you could figure out your lift clearance and toss a small cam in it but id spray the piss out of it and start building another motor that will accept a bigger cam then when your ready strip the heads off and sell the old one
