For a stock motor and radial tires, the King Cobra clutch for $200 is hard to beat from Summit. Throttle body and injectors won't help on the stock motor. I don't see gears in your mod list, if you don't have them, get them. You'll notice *much* bigger gains with 3.73's compared to TB and injectors.

If anything the 3.73's help clutch life since you don't need to slip the clutch as much when taking off from a stop.
The throttle body is not the restriction on your car right now. You have nothing to gain by doing it.
Injectors would be completely useless. You're not making the power where you would benifit from larger injectors.
Probaby the biggest bang for the buck right now is taking it to the track and tuning the car and your driving skills. It seems like you have all the basic bolt ons that I have for a stock motor. Solid 13's with some sticky tires should be no problem.

Id have to go with the king cobra! Good clutch for the price. Ive got a Dual friction Centerforce in my cougar, and it works pretty good too, so far. As for mods, TB and inj would be worthless. Spend the $$$ on a decent intake, then maybe a head swap.
