Ok, here's the deal. I'm calling the local mustang shop (where my car is at right now) and telling them what I need done to it... So I need yalls advice. I've got $1500 credit up there (the owner sold my old motor/tranny+ my wrecked car) so I've got a few extra bucks to spend. My question.... What should I do next? You can see the mods I have in my signature. I was thinking about getting some new valve covers, but it occured to me..... is there any advantage of aftermarket valve covers besides clearance? So that got me thinking..... whats a good mod >$400 I should do? I'd like to have another engine mod since I want to hit 300rwhp, but I'd do a suspension/other mod if it came down to it. Please, lemme know what you think I should do.. I'm calling the shop in about 2 1/2 hours (8am EST) Thanks

Get some steaper gears 373's,or 410's.Also get some DR's to hook up some of that power.The Nitto DR's have a nice street tread,and will last you around 15,000 miles!

Ya, I forgot to mention, this car already has 373's, it's a 91 GT. The 355's stayed in the wrecked coupe.
