I have a 95 gts mustang and I'm installing a fidanza aluminum fly with a 28 and 50 oz balancer, a king cobra clutch kit, ford racing 3:55 gears, and ford racing differential clutch kit. What Gains will I be seeing with this?

you'll get a SOTP feel with the gears, but no real power gains unless your clutch is slipping now. maybe a few tenths off the 1/4 with the gears.

W/ the gears and flywheel you will notice some nice changes in driveability. but again not too much power. The flywheel may get you a few horses on a dyno, but if you dragrace the car you will loose some rpms at launch (hence the trade off). As far as accelerating while your moving, that will improve since the flywheel has less inertia and the gears will help with this also. Don't worry so much about the HP...I think you will be pretty happy with that setup.
