Default Any free simple mods for my 69?

Looking for any free, simple or relatively inexpensive mods I can do to my stock 350/300 automatic 69 coupe to improve HP. Thanks! Oh yeah, it has side pipes as well!

You can bump up the timing a little (careful not to detonate) for added FREE power

Check the fuel and airfilter. :thumbs: :cheers:

Oh,and if you have inserts in the sidepipes,remove them..That way it will sound like it has the potential to tear a Funnycar to pieces and will free up some ponys hiding there :cheers: :jester

Rebuild carb and dist to spec. Followed by a crisp tune-up. Replace any bad or needy secondary ign components. Setup your ign advance curve to suit your engine.
Check carb WOT position, and then..... :steering:
