Those are all quality parts, but I wouldn't expect more than 30-40 hp. I myself would like to get the battery re-location kit!

Moser 31 Spline Mustang Axles for 8.8 in Rear w/ Studs (99-04 GT, Bullitt, & Mach 1) -- Do these come with 31 spline side gears or do you need still need to buy a 31 spline LSD or spool.

Not sure on the gear for the moser's... I ordered stage 2 patriot heads and a set of comp cams ( i think they were a stage 4 mild street tune)... last night.. so all that, plus the heads and cams I should be around 300 with a tune when im done !...right..??

I think you may have to upgrade your diff to install those 31 splines. I think the factory traction lock is only a 28 spline.

Being N/A cams, yes im thinking over 300RWHP. Lack of LTs are the only thing holding you back.

SOOO why on earth wont she let you buy a mongoose kit for 3800, but lets you spend over $4500 on boltons/heads/cams? And yes you will need a new carrier.

A. Ford explorer rear pumpkin (ONLY 31 spline avalaible)
B. aurborn
C. Eaton
D. locker

your stock stuff is 28 spline...you NEED an aftermarket 31 spline carrier for the 31 spline axles to work. Each will run you cloer to 400 I think.

YES, the heads/cams are going to make a VERY large difference when you get supercharged later.

My girlfriend told me she is going to buy me a mongoose kit for my birthday next month but I don't think it will happen. Wish full thinking.

Ditch the shorty headers, you can find a cheaper X-pipe that will perform just as well.

Also, radiator? While nice to have, it's certainly not a need item.

Additionally, add some flowers in there for your GF, then tell her that you at least spent some of the money on her...
