You definately need to use new followers with a new cam. If your using a 32/36 weber then you will see an increase in power, just not as much as if you were using 40s or 45s. I found that the 234 kent cam kit is a good one to boost power without the need to mod pistons,etc. if you can get the engine lightened and balanced as this will let it rev more freely, the 234 cam will let you rev to 6500 nice and cleanly.

Other bits to do are make sure the inlet manifold is matched to the inlet ports, gives a smooth air flow and fit a larger bore exhaust. Don't spend money on a 4 branch manifold as at a low spec of tune it will make no difference.
