I suggest getting a set of gears next...If you drive the car everyday 3.73 would be better, but if you just drag race it then go with 4.10's...
As far as more engine mods, I would buy some underdrive pulley's and a 76mm C&L mass air meter and you should be able to run mid to high 13's....
Dont forget about tires(slicks/drag radials)....Driving skill and practice is helpful in getting low 1/4 mile times too... ![[patriot]](graemlins/patriot.gif)
edit: Please dont type in "CAPS"...It means you are yelling...

A 95 Mustang C&L would NOT fit.....95 Mustangs have a flange at the end of the mass air meter, 88-93 Mustangs do not....You also want to make sure that any MAF you buy is calibrated for your stock 19lb injectors also...

Try Differential Doctors in San Leandro. The guy's name is Tom, about the same price as Rear End Specialties and a whole lot closer. He did the spool in my car.

Purchase some Nitto 555R Drag Radials and get some 3.73's installed at Rear End Specialties.
Then if I were you I would sell my whole exhaust set up and go with new BBK Long Tubes with a shorty off Road h-pipe and your choice of mufflers.
Set of pullys would help out as well.

FYI-
My rockers caused valve float at 5500 on the 90k mile stock springs. Ran the times shifting just before that.
