Heads, cam, intake for 90 GT, or very nice purple 70 coupe?

My girlfriend of 4 years has come up on a decision and my opinion can pretty much sway one way or the other. I'm gonna make this a poll, so please vote. On one hand, she can buy the TrickFlow H/C/I package for her 90 GT and convert to a T5, OR, buy a VERY VERY nice purple 70 coupe, with a 351w, with a similar combo as mine and put the T5 in it. What should I talk her into.

I have to admit, I'm kinda leaning towards talking her into getting the 70 coupe. Fast fox bodies are nice, but nothing feels like a quick classic Mustang.

If she gets the 70 coupe, for now it will get the exact setup as my 68, with H/C/I coming later.

Depends if she wants to go fast or drive a classic. That lighter fox with HCI will be pretty quick, it's not really a decision any of us can make. But just to make the conversation interesting I'll say go with the fast fox.

Buy the classic, you can do the H/C/I thing at any time. Getting a good deal on a good classic may not happen again for a long time.
