Default best mods for the mark 8 motor

I picked up one and want to make power on a budget. I have a cobra crank and am upgrading the pistons/rods.

What else is needed for power mods that are cost effective.

Being you're upgrading the bottom end, toss in the Cobra intake cams and toss on the Cobra intake and shove a 125 shot down her throat.

I have a complete set of '98 Cobra cams, both chains, and sprokets if you're looking to buy, Darby.
