Default New guy on the block

Hey everyone! Just back from a tour in the desert, and I finally get to enjoy home again. Well, if anyone would like to hear my setup, its a work in progress...First off, shes a 98 gt convertible, black/tan/tan, I put on strut tower brace along with caster camber adjuster. I have Eledbrock sub frame connectors, a K&N filter with 70mm throttle body, I put on Ford Racing shortie heeders with 2 1/2" Mac cat back exhaust. I rebuilt the rear end with 3:73 Ford Racing gears with new Timken bearing and new clutches for the track lock and new axle seal and bearings. I put in a new King Cobra clutch and pressure plate with new throw out and pilot bearings. I also put on a Steeda adjustable clutch cable. I put on a Mac short throw shifter and the Mac white face gauges along with the two gage pods for the oil pressure and water temp. I also put on the Steeda under drive pullies. Any comments/suggestions? My future plans include a supercharger, upgraded valve train, upgraded bottom end, T56 tranny, and upgraded suspension. I'd like to hear any opinions. Thanks.
