Depends on what you want to do with the car. Goals. AutoX. Drag. Light-to-light monster.
Everything's a compromise.

Welcome to the boards.

Start with opening up the intake. The TPI setup is really restrictive. You can either port it yourself (search threads on how) or you can replace with parts that already flow much better.
Edelbrock
SLP
AS&M
TPIS
Superram
Mini ram
Stealth ram
LT1
Vortec
BBK I believe as well.
Searches on any of these will provide you with lots of information as to where to purchase, flow numbers, and other peoples experiences and opinions about the parts.
Depending on how far you want to go may require some head work.

will be your friend
