Put a Holley 600, vacuum secondaries, electric choke and an Edelbrock Performer intake on mine......Love it. I recommend the purchase. Add headers and dual exhaust next, it will free up the breathing a bit and make you smile when you hear it. This should allow you more performance, even on a tired 289. Rebuild or upgrade can come later and the parts can be re-used....
