Rebuilt T-5 Tranny
C&L 76mm Mass Air Meter
Rebuilt Trac-Loc
K&N Air Filter
4.10 Gear
Aluminum Under Drive Pulleys
Front Sway Bar Removed

14* Timing
Shorty Headers
MSD Cap & Rotor Kit
X-Pipe
MSD Coil
Flowmasters
Ford Racing 9mm Wires
B&M Ripper Short Throw Shifter

well im getting $3,000.00 for christmas to put into the motor what should i do??

i was thinking about getting the trick flow kit but i already have the cobra r upper and lower here, i guess i could just sell it...but anyway whats the chances of me getting 350hp with 3,000 to the motor?

AFR 165 heads ($1,300), custom cam ($375), gaskets ($150), 24lb injectors ($220), new sample tube for C&L ($????), long tube headers and x-pipe (we'll say $470), and electric fan ($210). That's around $2700-$2800...leaves some many to have some port matching done to your intake-to-head. Not the only route you can go though....SO MANY different options The above would be 350 CRANK horsepower no prob..prob around 300 at the wheels.

This all assuming your shortblock is in good shape, if not I would use the money to build a stroker shortblock.
