PROGRESS!!

Just tore down the front of the engine yesterday (took off timing cover) b/c of my recent little hole in my timing cover...turns out that my one piece eccentrical was put in in the wrong place and it got caught and made a nice big mess out of my cam gear and got caught between the crank gear and the chain...ouch...so i got a new set in mind...its called a zoom with adjustable timing for advancing or retarding the timing...should i leave the car as is or should i advance or retard..i have an88 mustang gt with maf, 19 lb inj, stock tb, edelbrock performer rpm intake, stock head but a b-303 cam...any thoughts would be greatly appreciated!

alright i shall do that well with what all i said about how many horses you think im running with this combo? Later on i would like to do some ported roush heads and port the intake to match.... n also invest in some roller rockers... will i need 1.6 or 1.7 and diff push rods?
