The big question is what you want to do with the car, that will depend on how you want it setup. If you want it to be a track car or a drag car or just keep it as a daily driver that occasionally you take to the track, or just a daily driver As far as headers go, BBK long tubes and h pipe seem to be good quality for the price (around $600 without cats). you can spend a ton of money on Kooks for about $1000. Suspension is a definite must in this car. if you are keeping it as a daily driver with occasional track time the Eibach Pro System is a decent setup for around $650 (add $300 if you want roll bars). as far as power options go it all depends on how much you want to spend. beyond your supercharger you are going to spend alot of money now on minimal gains. Cams will probably get you an additional 30 to 50 hp (depending on the cam and tune) but will spend around $1000 or more just for the cams. Then depending on the cam also you may end up buying springs and retainers to go with. gets expensive quick.

good luck with everything hope this helps a little.
Most of the prices are off of www.Americanmuscle.com - great people and prices on everything, very helpful, where i get almost all of the stang parts from.

Also check out the Vendors and Sponsors section in the forum to see if they are having any sales on the stuff you are looking for, the American Muscle one has some good info in it and they are always running sales.

With a bolt-on GT with a procharger, i'd say go 4.10's honestly. But if you do that, get your suspension along with it, as you'll have to manage traction with the 4.10's a little more than with 3.73's. The car will be a lot more responsive and more fun to drive. As far as mods go, tb/plenum would be good. Also, headers dont go BBK. At least get MAC's or go for the good stuff and get Kooks or American Racing headers.

Oh and a nice built shortblock and heads/cams/intake would be awesome too :P

Budget and future usage of the car must be decided first...
Any suggestions without that info may be leading you down the wrong path. We can all say what we would do if it were our car, but that takes into account only our desires for future usage.

Tell us what you want the car to do, and we can then help you decide on your future mods.
