Honestly, if you are on a budget, just get some absurd gears. I was running 4.10's or 4.30's on my original 87 5.0 lx stang and didnt even know it! It was my first muscle car and I just figured mustangs were high revvers on the highway (I still was able to get 24 mpg hwy).
Get the crazy gears and that leaves all the fiddling with the computer and exhaust alone. Gears are cheap and make all the difference in the world. You also retain the reliability of stock equiptment up front and you dont have to worry about clearances.
