I don't think you're going to gain much more with that many miles unless you rebuild for performance or drop in crate motor; stroked 383.

Probably better off running it stock and tuned till wheels fall off.

Good advice. Yes, as I learn about these vehicles, I have begun to map out a strategy. I am not looking for anything more than a strong running daily driver that will haul some hay in the Winter.

The exhaust needs to be re-done (muffler & tailpipe fell off) so that is area number one. I, too, found a nice Cat Back Dynomax system that is affordable, and simple to install.

That, along with a complete quality tune up (incl. air filter, fuel filter, PCV) should get me where I wanna go. I may look into some mild performance chips at some point, too.

But, I'm not swapping out the Cam, etc., trying to make a race car out of this nice cruiser.

Appreciate all the input!
