I'd get a Brenspeed 302, M90/500hp kit, 3k stall converter, lower/upper control arms, light weight drive shaft, afco dual fan XXL heat exchanger... yeah, it's not a 600hp blower, but with this combo it should last forever lol

Brant new Aluminator for sure, and get a TVS screw supercharger. Roush makes some great TVS units.
Or, buy a crate Coyote 5.0, rip open that Coyote, dump in all true forged internals and dished forged pistons to lower the compression ratio so you can pump in high boosts and/or nitrous!

To lay down that power, I say get one of those super built-up C4 trannies, they can take the power of an engine capable of pushing your car into 9's at the drag strip!

Just understand that mods are worth pennies on the dollar. That 20k will be worth less than 5k if you try and part the car out, and even less than that if you try and sell or trade it. Its the financial equivalent of wiping your *** with the money frankly. I'd take the car, the 20k, and buy a GT500.

And after you bought M90 a year or so later would be saying, "If I had only got a Kenne Bell . . ."

If I had 20k I would spend it on something old hands down. The mustang is cool, but an old ford... is cooler...
