General Q on the 5.0
 
New to the board/forum so sorry if this is a repeat question.
Any "easier" ways to get more HP out of the 5.0? I have a 91 Brougham in excellend condition with only 112k 2nd owner/ Just wish it had a little more pep! I have had everything normal done such as tune up, injectors, etc
Any ideas? Thanks.

Easiest way to get more power out of a 305 / 5.0 is replace it with a 350 / 5.7. For the cost of parts required to jump hp you could get a good used 350 / 5.7. If you insist on keeping 305 there is plenty of info and parts available for small block chevy engine.

If you make the intake and exhaust flow easier there will be a power boost. The only way anyone makes power is by smooth flow into and out of the engine. This also depends on how much you want to spend.
