Ummmm, why would you put a h/c/i package on a crate motor that already has heads and cam? Do you mean a short block?

If money is no concern I would look at a 347 crate motor, then get the trick flow H/C/I package. Spend like a k in suspension, and a TKO 600 with 3.73's. That would make the thing better then just about anything on the road.

RE: Free Mustang
If money was no option for me id start with the basics. Give it a good tuneup including a 180 Thermo atleast, exhaust, better gears, and some subframe connectors atleast. Id upgrade the stock rad for better cooling. Next would be a 5 lug swap with 4-wheel discs (new rims of course) and then swap out the stock bushings for polys with adjustable shocks and struts. Id drive it for a while and get used to the chassis setup.
Then id tackle the motor once i felt ready. Either a built stroker or stocker with H/C/I maybe a S/C or nitrous if you like (i like NA for some reason). I look at it this way...do the suspension first and build yourself a solid foundation for the go fast goodies youll be adding later. Some do it all in one shot,suspension,driveline,motor etc. and thats fine. Just take it slow. And the most important of all...shiney side up!
And BTW,the friend that just 'gave' you the Stang...you owe them BIG lol.
