I am probably going to get the 290hp crate engine from GM. What would be the easiest way to increase the HP 10 more horses?
Thanks for all ideas.

can i ask why you want 10 more HP???
if you're buying a new crate engine why mess with it? remember HP ratings are measured at PEAK RPM, you won't notice 10 HP under most driving conditions. why don't you just tell people you've got a 300 HP engine and be done with it???[S
Johnny, I am not familar with the crate engine your going to use, but it sounds like stock heads and intake. If it is a stock intake, you can pick up
10+ with a good steet Edelbrock intake. If you want try for 30+, go for the E- Street heads and intake, add roller rockers and pickup a couple of more hp.
The good thing about the 290 hp 350 ci ? engine is, anything you do will
help it. If you are a good tuner, you could pick up 10 hp with the carb and
timing. If you go with either the intake or heads, be sure to check the port match. All the little stuff helps.
good luck,
