everything these guys above me said is very correct. i just want to add one more little thing.. check your timing or have someone who knows how to do it right. make sure its set at atleast 10* bump it up to about 12* and start using supreme octane. if its below 10 when you check it or have it checked, that is your prob. if its between 10 to 12 youre alright. check that out for real though some people check their timing and find it at like 5 and 6. never know whos messed with it before you had it. good luck

how pressed for cash are you? one thing that will wake it up under 700 is intake, supercharger for about 3000 or you could just go heads. heads would wake that car up extremely. but if you are looking for a cheap easy way to get a little more out of it then i would go with the gears. 4.10

I got 3.73s,1st gear is a really quick shift,almost to quick,I can only imagine how 4.10s would be,I'm not sure if I'd like it,but I could be wrong..

I am new to the whole mustang scene. I just purchased a 95' Cobra and I was wondering how complicated it is to put the 4.1 gears in? Or how much does it cost to have them put in?
