Mild cam, springs & a Wiseco piston if you have the big 3 already. Do a search for adding power to one of these 350's & you'll find more than you can swallow.

If you're confident enough to tackle it, you can do it yourself. Those 350's are some of the easiest to do top ends on. Get yourself a Clymer repair manual and read through chapter 4, to get an idea of what is required.

And all you need is basic hand tools. Except for a torpue wrench, a good 45degree angle pick for the piston circlips, and a m4 and m6 allen sockets.

I would for sure get the Clymers manual. It helped me out a ton while i was doing my top end rebuild. And i had never worked on a wheeler before. Im still a little iffy about doing any kind of head work tho.
