All Small Six 200 in-line 65 falcon

Just had my 200 inline rebuilt with so-called cam and compression modifications...... ,but im only getting 120 hp.....my expert ford mechanic says can't do much with the ford 200's .....is this true and what can I do at reasonable price to get more pep out of it since I already put 5000 into the engine with install.

Hi, your horsepower is right @ what the factory gave. Tell more about your engine. Do you have the original carb and ignition system? All that was improved in the late 60's. Read the tech archive and learn more about your Ford Six. Good luck

Here is my list in order of cost and gain
2v carburetor
HEI
Headers
Turbo
Aussie Xflow head
Supercharger
V8

I think I would add cam to the list somewhere above x flow head

yes 1 barrel carb and a pertronix ignition upgraded my 3 on the tree to a c4 tranny
