Hey I just got a completely stock 1971 Mustang Grande with a 351 Cleveland 2v engine. I am thinking of getting a Edelbrock performer intake and a 500cfm 4barrel carb and switching it to dual exhaust maybe 2.5inch or 3 inch. I really am not looking to be having to stop at every gas station, but I dont realy want a slouch either. I am thinking that 250HP or maybe push it to 300 willbe sufficient. I want it to look good, sound great and be able to lay rubber If I am so inclined or provoked. (yes I have a temper.) this car is my daily driver now, so it has to remain streetable.

Can any of you reccomend any thing? hints tips tricks free parts?

Mike
