Theres the exhaust video for your viewing pleasure...... Stock headers, flowmaster mufflers (previous owner claims) and no cross-over.
The car was not completely warmed up when i filmed that, when its warmed up it snaps, crackles and pops when i let off the throttle from high rpms. Is that normal?

heres my question, found these two wires missing a home, anyone know what they are?

they could be 2 of three things, if that is the passenger side. One is the coolent temp sensor, the air intake sensor or the ac plug. It could also be the EGR but i think that is more towards the firewall

well both the air temp and engine temp go in the lower manifold, just look to see if there are any sensors, the engine temp will be in your heater core lines near the dist. passenger side, the air temp will be in #5 intake runner. EGR will be between TB and upper intake, AC is self explanatory

thanks for you help, i'll take a look at those when i get off work. I looked over the area yesterday but couldnt find anything for them to attach to. But i didnt even think of lookin at the a/c, maybe thats why it doesnt work.

appears that the previous owner cut the wire that comes off the a/c and twisted them together. Not sure why, but any idea where i can buy just that wire? I still couldnt find any place to put the other loose wire though...?

My guess is ECT and Carbon canister solenoid power.

could you explain where these are located? These V8s are like french to me, i've never had a RWD car or any type of V8 so the whole engine position and wiring locaton is very different than from what i am use to. Sounds dumb, but i guess you could say its like going from a V8 to a subaru H-4. Everthing is in a different place. That and i havnt owned a car in over a year, so im a little rusty.....

if you could take more pics of your whole motor we could help, take pics of the top of the motor, and down by the radiator, all the ford sensor plugs look very similar, so its hard to say where they go, there is many possibilities...

does the car run, and if so is the check engine light on? Good about the smog, you can eliminate a bunch of crap from your motor, if your into that, ive deleted just about everything from my motor, so I can help you.
