It all depends.
What kind of horse power are you looking for?
What kind of supporting mods do you have?
Your basic upgrade would be factory H.O. cams. from there krc 206's 212's or 218's.
in any which case you going to need at least a ported tb and a cai to get the most out of a bigger cam.

Because you already have an H.O. your better off forgetting about the cam for now.
Gears, ported tb, and headers/y pipe/exaust, and tuner would be better investments.
