The OEM Mach I shocks are great for the money. They are basically Tokico Premiums that have been valved to Fords specs. I have been using a set with H&R Supersports on my '03 GT since 800-miles on the odometer. You can get them for $179+shipping for the full set (front struts/rear shocks) from http://www.fordpartsnetwork.com

I got mine from there and the service was top-notch.
