Hmm, i suppose full exhast, intake manifold, full intake system, cams, tune? Thats about all im guessin, n/a that is. If you want those numbers just get a vortech with 9 psi boost pr a KB conv. runnin same boost. Internals should be fine with these applications

I want basically the most power I can get n/a while having a sturdy happy DD. What's about the Max from a built n/a 2v 4.6 you think?

350 wheel is going to be pretty hard to get with just bolt ons. If you can do it you will spend much more than just putting a vortech on it

You can always take weight off the car to obtain a better power/weight ratio . . .

Much better choice than going for a hp goal.

^agreed

Having bout 300hp but less weight will feel the same as havin 350. Get lighter seats (corbeau or sparco are more affordable and do a good job) lighter rims, Delete the rear seats, Lotta stuff like that. The wheels will make the biggest difference due to unsprung weight.
