With a budget like that find some GT-40 heads and a Cobra intake off of Ebay. That'll get some decent performance for not very much

If you REALLY shop around, you can do it for under a grand. The other stuff that is expensive that kills is gaskets and new bolts and other small things. You can prolly get some heads for around 250-300, cam for 150, and intake for around 250. What are you lookin to do with the car ?
