Im not looking for something too extreme just somehting that will put me in the mid to low 13s. Any suggestions for what else is needed and should i change anything on the list?

This should be a very nice streetable combo. Very similar to what I am installing, except I'm going with the GT-40p heads and adding MAC ceramic coated headers. I would suggest adding headers to your list. Others are going to suggest adding 24# injectors, but I've been advised that I won't really need them yet, by a few local professional Mustang hot rodders.

I used the FEL-1415 header gasket and FEL-1250 lower intake gasket. I got some ROL head gaskets from www.flowtechinduction.com so I don't know the part number for them off hand. I would get a new thermostat gasket and have a bit of spare money for accidents or if you see you need a new vaccum line or if you broke something...

You should be able to reuse your valve cover gaskets...

I've been thinking of the same combo, I wasn't sure how well the heads would work with the stock cam though. Anybody out there know for sure? Also if any body has a suggestion or opinion on the size of injector.Thanks all.

Oh yeah to answer your question as to what you will need. Head Bolts, FRPP # M-6065-C289

fordnatic - The heads will work awesome with the stock cam (the stock cam is good) and you will maintain the same cam driveability characteristics

I would get 24lb injectors...but if your just doing those heads/intake the 19's (stock) would work...

I think the stock injectors should be fine. However you may want an ajustable fuel pressure regulator to bump the fuel 6-8 psi. The computer should compensate at low demand and it will help at WOT
