Finding some horses....
so. With this truck being all Mechanical. Would getting new injectors or mine drilled out be a right step in the direction of more horses. Also if i do that then wont i need a larger fuel pump and a high pressure oil pump? And what about the intake?
injectors would do it. and you DO NOT have a high pressure oil pump if its an IDI. you have an injection pump feeding high pressure fuel to injectors that pop at a certain pressure. but you can turn up the pump and upgrade injector nozzles or just get ones with a higher rating. And yes an intake is a must. K&N, AFE, theres a bunch of different brands.
What if i turned up the pump before getting injectors is that gonna hurt me at all? and if not how do i go about turning the pump up?

I would look into a turbo kit. Banks used to make one. Maybe you could find one on ebay are just build one from scratch utilizing a turbo that fits your fuel demand. Or.... You could ditch the IDI and drop in a 12V!
