well at 70 the rpm's are 2400, at 80 about 2900.
and get FRPP, should be around $175 wherever you get them. with the install kit around 300.
Motive brand you may get a gear whine.

Ya you would definately be happy with adding some 4.10s. Most places should have similar prices. When I did mine I went with the motive 4.10s from brenspeed and loved them, although I did get a little bit of gear whine but only cruising at certain rpms. But you can't got wrong with ford racing or motive.

Gears
CMDP/UDP
Driveshaft

...not at the same time, each one is a different option.

You are lowered, so you have done springs and shocks, correct?

If you are only running lowering springs on the stock shocks, then you should do a dampener set of your choice.

If that is done then what is your budget?

Wheels and tires
UDPs
Delete plates
Gears
EH2O pump
1 pc. Driveshaft
Panhard bar and brace
LCA and relocation brackets
Long tube headers
Brake upgrade
Solid motor mounts
K-member brace with torque limiters
Stroker, Heads, and cams if staying NA
Blower or turbo

Gears or rims and tires will give you the most bang for your buck though

Thats a good list there... and yea I have only installed the springs.. its still stock shocks.. I'm getting tempted to just stop here and start saving up for a supercharger.. I think that just might be the boost I need.. haha.. I am pretty interested in doing the 1-piece driveshaft, K-member brace, and the EH2O pump is new to me.. how much power does that free up?
