Blower [Smile] Doing an H/C/I setup on one of those cars is going to cost you a shitload compared to a pushrod motor.

I would slap an S-trim or a Procharger on it and run 6-8 lbs of boost.

Here are some other things you can do:

- 373 gears
- long tube headers
- O/R X/H pipe
- 2 1/2 cat back
- upper plenum
- pulleys
- CAI
- re-flash the computer w/ a programmer

Even if you do all that you will still need the blower to keep up.

I totally agree. Blower is a good way for power on those cars. Check out ProChargers website and watch the video where they put the 9psi kit on a bone stock 01 GT..went from 13.67 to to 12.13. Heck, with all the perfect conditions that could be an 11 second car.

LOL, good point...but then again in this day and age a Mustang with exhaust could almost still be considered bone stock.
