Default HELP! a 428 challenge!

Okay Clubcobra friends,

I have a challenge for all of you. Here is my situation. I just bought a Cobra that has a very stock 428 in it (I will give engine details below). I have $2500 and I want to get the most power out of the engine possible while maintaining its driveability and keeping it on pump gas. What parts/changes are the best bang for my buck?

What I have now:
428 FE block
stock pistons, rods, etc.
Cam is an edelbrock 194/204 duration @ .050 and .46/.48 lift
heads are aluminum Edelbrock heads 2.09 intake, 1.66 exhaust, 3/8 valves, etc. (part no. 60069)
Manifold is an Edelbrock Performer 390
Carb is an HP 4150
Exhaust are the normal cobra side pipes
Mallory ignition

What would you change and what would you change it to?

Thank you so much!

John
