Any suggestions on what I’ll need?
Define “a lot of power”…? If you’re staying naturally aspirated, then the OEM long block is decent. Ditch the AFM system and get some better springs & lifters when you do the cam.

If you’re going for a LOT of power, that will generally need forced induction and a forged short block. Jump into the Forced Induction forum and read, read, read. Then be prepared to break out the checkbook…
