hi guy Ive just bought a 360 GLT just wondered what can i do with this engine (2.0i) to get a few more pony's out of it and i dont really want to take it out due to lack of time space and tools.

Ditch the viscous fan and fit an electric one.

Bolt a pair of sidedraughts on and port and polish head.

Try and find a decent cam for little money.

Bottom end pretty strong as standard.
