Sorry that this is so long, lots of questions and probably to much thinking.......Thanks Mr 5 0, This car is my summer toy so it doesn't matter to me if it eventually turns into a weekend brute on the streets. I think most everybody wants a street car that is on the ragged edge. I would rather ask what kind of times i can expect to get out the stock block. I would prefer staying NA but am not opposed to a supercharger. As to further the cars intent i bought it almost stock and wanted to do some suspension/brake/wheel tire mods. Since there really isnt a 1/4 miles worth of staight stretch in town and i only take the car to the track everyonce in a while, the road race suspension suited my needs better. Everybody with mustangs intown have Bigs and littles and i simply like the look of Bigs and Bigs. Anyway you look at it the suspension is better than stock. As far as new parts, I don't want to buy parts over and over again as i upgrade even though you have to in some areas. I try to do searchs on who makes the best version of a certain product but i am overwhelmed with all the company's in the industry. Lets say i have $500 to spend, what would you buy. I have heard mixed emotions about pulleys and affects an amperage. I don't have amps or big speakers so that isn't a problem, will i really notice the power and who has the best. Some people only run certain pulleys? Why and how do i know if thats me. Car runs fine until i hit A/C and i watch the needle bounce. I like my A/C by the way. I talked to a guy at local speed shop who soounds very Knowledgable and has a 9 Second stroked, supercharged race coupe. He says buy a supercharger and when your stock motor finally gives in you can unblt it and bolt it on to your new motor without any problems VS. investing in heads intake cam etc and when the motor goes, most everything else will too. Im not saying that i'll never do heads intake, etc. But on my stock motor? I know it still has plenty of life unless i do somehting stupid but what are some key things to do to get me in the door and be competetive with the other guys? Thanks for the help and sorry it was so long. Mike
