    Box intakes

    No problem. Send me your email address so I don't have to try posting them on here. If you take this intake, it'll be right at home as it came out of a triple black 94 vert :D I've also got a set of untouched Trick Flow Twisted Wedge heads if you're interested. They'd be a nice step up...

    What rear control arms?

    THESE are my favorites :nice: AutoWeld has some nice arms, too. The regular adjustable arms are about 1/2-way down the page Then there are the affordable, non-adjustable sets like THESE from JD's Performance. More than adequate for a daily driver. Huge improvements over the stock arms...

    MAS qusetion?

    You were correct with MAS. However, it's more commonly known these days as the MAF meter. As a matter of fact, I think it's always been a MAF meter on 5.0 mustangs. GM used to call them Mass Air Sensors. Maybe they still do, I don't know :shrug:. Both of them fuction the same...incoming air...

    intake

    Usually it's the intake that needs to be opened up to match a larger TB.

    Box intakes

    Reichard Racing has them for Trick Flow & Holley intakes. I'm not sure if he makes them for stock lowers. They definitely don't fall into the cheapest category though. I've got one of these & the air gapped R lower for my 408. I've got a black Downs box upper here somewhere. I think...

    Throttle body question

    If you're just swapping intakes, it's only 12 more bolts... :shrug: The only part that could be considered 'tricky' is sealing across the front & rear. Unhook everything that's attached to your intake now, lay it out in order. Bolt the new intake down and put all the hardware back on. Be...

    Throttle body question

    You said it already. If you're buying to replace the stock TB, then the difference in price is neglible. But if you're stepping up from a 65 to a 70 just to have a bigger TB, then you're just wasting hard earned $$$. In this case, his 65 was broke and needed to be replaced anyway.

    Matching rear gears to Horsepower

    Very true, very true. Usually try to make it up with tire first though unless tire size is class limited.

    Shifter base.....

    buy it and bolt it up to whatever 5-spd you've got now. it'll bolt up to a T-5, T-45, 3550, TKO or TKO 2.

    Throttle body question

    I hope you got a really good deal on it because, even if you already had the cobra intake, the improvement going from a 65 to a 70 is not worth the $$$ if you have to buy it new.

    Why would anyone need hardened pushrods?

    ...and that will determine the necessity of hardened pushrods

    Matching rear gears to Horsepower

    :stupid: for the track, gears should be determined by tire height, trap speed & engine rpm.

    aluminum driveshaft

    It gives you less rotating mass in the driveline which means more HP/TQ to the wheels. I'm not sure of its value in terms of how much HP/TQ, but it's not very much. I don't know what upgrades you've got, but on a stock stang, I don't think you'll feel the difference from an aluminum...

    aluminum driveshaft

    If you have a 3550, you need the 'G'. If you have a TKO/TKO2, you need the 'J' same as the 96-98 Cobra. The only difference in the two of them is that 'J' has a higher spline count in the transmission yoke.

    Which header gaskets to get?

    Can't say for sure without checking out #253 in person. I've never seen need to run anything better than the FelPro-1415. I personally, couldn't justify that much money for a stock port gasket. If it makes any difference in your decision making, I'm putting my 408 together with a set of Mr...
