Default Next mods on the list. Chime in

Ok, so here's a no brainer question for some. I just can't make my mind up. lol

I have few mods that I WILL do here shortly. I just can't decide on which set. Here's what I came up with as far as options.


1. BBK Under drive pulleys, BBK TB, BBK Shorty headers. Then few months down the line an aluminum drive shaft.

or.

2. Mac LT headers, and FRPP Cams.

Money wise, they are all in the same ball park. somewhat. I am really leaning towards option no. 2..

Which option would you go with, which option gives you more HP and Responsiveness.
Thx for the input. I can't make up my mind..

Oh and pleasepost reasons why, not just your pick. I need someone to sell me on which option.. heh

If I had a gt I would do number 2. That is because I think it would yield more HP(could be wrong) but also because you have slp loudmouths...like I would...and the longtubes and cams would make those sound more badass. They would be super loud which I personally like and have that nice cammed sound.

So that's how I'd convince myself.

^^^ Agree. Option 2 without a doubt.

option 2 will give you more power definitely, but if you want the BBK UDP I have some that I never installed that I can sell you cheap

I'd say option #2 as well...love the sound of cams and more power to boot!

The reason I wanted MAC is because I was thinking of pairing them with the MAC prochamber. Something wrong with them ?

Gotta jump on the bandwagon and agree with option 2! For similar reasons already stated. Kind of related/kind of not, beautiful pony you have there!!!

i dont have any personal experience with MAC, so i may not be a valid source on their products. I have only heard others speak of fitment issues and quality.. Originally, i was going to get them also. The shop i get my work done at really didn't think they were a good quality product. I will never put BBK or MAC products in my Stang..Although they have many happy customers. I need top tier parts in my Stang... piece of mind for me is priceless.. that setup is what i originally wanted MAC LT's and prochamber...
