[LOPEZ5]

I'm sort of new at this. What I'm looking to get out of it is education. With me there is a lot of room for improvement. I'll start by asking about my car. I have a '72 LeMans Sport 2dr hardtop with a 400cid engine off a '74 GP. I know the HP and engine compression out of the '74 was sort of low.(184 and 7.6 I think) What I'm looking for is to increase the comp and up the ponnies, maybe 300 to 350 Hp. Where do I need to start? What do I need to look for as far as engine #'s, gears, etc, etc.
Any contributions to my Pontiac 101 class is greatly appreciated. Thanks
