Need more power

Hello all,
Im new to all this just so please excuse my ignorence just turned 16 and bought an 89 Camaro RS, has 305 with 5 speed. I love it. down to the subject matter tho. I have 2000 extra dollars car looks good and so is interior. So I neeed some suggestions on getting more power and then applying it to the street. I just want around 375 horses and 400 ft/lbs is there any possible way to do this while keeping stock engine (stupid insurance companies say 350 around them and they go crazy!!!). Also still have to have money to apply power to street. If anyone could help me I would appreciate it.

If you have $2k,I would put in a supercharger.Nothing else,short of nitrous is going to give you that kind of power.You can spend the money on heads,cam,intake,or whaterever,but you wont get the HP increase that the supercharger will give you.
