So I just got a 1996 mustang gt back in September and when I drive my coolant runs low and the exhaust blows light white smoke. So I heard it might be a crack in the intake or head gaskets. So I'm thinking about just replacing both. What I wanna no is what parts should I get. And should I get a pi intake.

We're can I find the heads and intake.
You can find a set of good reman heads for about 600, They're complete assemblies so you won't have to swap anything. Make sure you get the PI Intake from Ford and not Dorman.

You're going to want to do a timing job while you're in there. A set of everything but the cam gears is about $70 from Cloyes. Gaskets are gonna run you maybe another $120, new head bolts are gonna be about $60. You're gonna need to clean the head gasket mating surfaces as well, so plan on spending a few hours and a pack of razor blades on that.

Good luck, it's a big job but not too complex.
