Are there any parts that could be added to a 225 that will enable it to keep up with a small v8?

Hell yes. Not only keep up, but outrun many of them.

There are a lot of parts that can be added to make that possible. I have not the fastest in a 53 Ford, that makes them look under the hood at the Mopar meets. Glen Terry has his doing a little bit better than mine at times. And neither of them are in the fastest, But are street driven.
