Would you guys get the Timing Adjuster or the Diablo Delta Chip (specifically if I get 3.73 in the near future?)

So with those mods... I should be approaching the 270RWHP? no?
Lizard King - good to see you back around here. I remember you from when you had the green car ripping off stock 1/4 times that nobody could believe. I was coming off owning a 5.0 Mustang and had just bought my 1st '97 T-bird 4.6L and was new to the whole modular game, so I trolled around the modular forum more than anything, never really posting. But needless to say, I remember that car and your driving skills being talked about all over the web.

The pulleys are going to give you power, period. Not 13rwhp like the old 5.0's, basically because ford is getting more agressive with their own pulley specs, but power non-the less. So for the price, they are a great bang for the buck. You won't have any charging problems or anything. Worst case senario, driving at night time in the rain with the stereo and A/C blasting, you might bog down the alt at idle, but thats about it.
I personally agree with the other guys and would let the timing be controlled with a chip or tune. Right now I think the best game in town is SuperChips Custom Tuning. This isn't the plain Superchips thats still around, this is 100% better. Either hook up with them for a dyno tune, or check out their stuff HERE.
As stated, Long tubes are really the only option as far as headers go. Now whether or not they are worth it depends on what you want out of your car. Thats up to you.
The 75mm TB should be matched with an aftermarket upper plenum.
