5.0 Cobra build questions
My girlfriend has a 94 Cobra. After going to the Ford Nationals this past weekend, she is ready to put some power to it. It is basically stock, with only a K&N filter and a full exhaust(headers, o/r h pipe, catback). Where would be a good place to start in her quest for more power? She would like to stay away from forced induction for now. If it were my choice, I'd s/c it, and forget about it. 
Any help would be appreciated as I don't know much about 5.0s.... I'm more into the 4.6
