need extra power ideas

Currently my friend and i are rebuilding a 305 tbi. We used the block from an 84 4bbl HO and used the heads, distributor, intake and everything above that from the 88 tbi we are putting it in. I put in an Edelbrock Performance RPM cam shaft which I was told put out 40-60 extra hp. What i was wondering which hp reading is right. The 84 said the motor stock was 190, and the 88 we are putting it into is 220. So what am i starting with? Also i am not into Nos but i would like to make the car about 350hp. I thought about rocker arms, headers, performance thottle body if they make it? and a chip. Is that hp ideal? If anyone has any suggestions please let me know. Also what is the signifigance of the gear ratio's in the back? I am also adding a different hood with a 2 inch rise in it, would an high rise intake add any hp to this. I am just getting into this and dont know much about this car, but i am learning quickly so if these questions sound retarded, forgive me. My main point is to blow my friends 95 mustang 5.0 away and about any other car i can. So help if you would
