Dragun, here's the short and sweet:

Use a small 4bll (Holley or Edelbrock) on the Offenhauser intake, use Langdon Cast Iron or long tube headers, use HEI(you are), a mild cam (Comp and Schnieder make 292 cams) and you've done the majority of improvements for the least money.

The next step is lump port the head, I suggest having Tom Lowe on Inliners.org do it.

You wanna throw more money at it?? >>> You can put in propane pistons, roller rockers (you'll need custom length pushrods) you can turbo, you can EFI, you can dump a ton of money. If you want to go that route read Santucci's book and Inliners.org
