1984 Corvette Question

*I don't know if this is the right section so feel free to move it if! necessary!*

Any way I have a 1984 Corvette and honestly 205 horse is not cutting it. Im wondering which steps I should take to bring it up in speed. Budget is not really an issue but I want to be as smart as I possibly can about doing this!
I understand the transmission will most likely need to be replaced and quite possibly the engine.

I just need to know what steps to take and an idea of how much it will cost!



Thank You!!!
