Default '93 notch Build advise

Been lurking for a while trying to get a grasp on things again after being away from Mustangs for about 10 years. I bought a basically stock '93 notch and plan on a few mods but want to know if I'm on the right track. I am still not sure on a few things as you can see below. I want to build it up to be a good dependable streetable car. Anyway, here are my plans.

BTW, I feel like a newbie again so take it easy on me.

Exhaust:
-Force II cat back (don't want to be loud and obnoxious)
-X pipe (off road)
-Ford Racing shorty headers

Engine:
Stock short block/bore
Cobra intake
GT 40 cast heads
Roller rockers (stamped or billet?)
Throttle body (what size?)
EGR plate (what size?)
MAF (what size?)
Cam (???)

Suspension:
SSBC 5 lug conversion
3:73 gears
GT Bullet rims
Springs (???)

too many questions...so I'll answer one....1.6 rockers, you'll get better results if you focus on one thing at a time

That's what I figured. I will do some more searching.

Thanks for the response.
