+1 on MMR

..just incase you haven't found it yet. you won't get much out of new mods with that much mileage, so definitely get at least a new shortblock. I'd go with the aluminum 5.0 shortblock MMR sells.. then you can add boost or whatever you like from there. According to Muscle Mustangs & Fast Fords, the 5.0 shortblock is good for mid 300rwhp right there

Comment removed due to idiocy.

OP Finance for an 03-04 cobra if you have the credit. They will like 10k down and believe it or not banks feel safe financing for mustangs over a lot of cars.

Depends on whether or not you like your body style...

I would say to try and put money towards an 03 cobra....10k is a nice downpayment
