seriously, you have to do a lot of research before you buy anything, even if your goal is "only" 350HP. your car is old and seen some miles, so you'll probably need a stronger rear then the limp 7.5" rear. You'll need to be able to support the new power, which is over twice of stock. probably new front brakes, new transmission, new clutch. this is not a simple project.
true true will the tans is kind of new, just got replace like about 3-4 years ago, i also was looking into buying a new flywheel. and about the rear end i was my friends cherokee has a rear end of 9" i was wonding if that could fit my stang but i dont think it would , n i think i will look into getting a GT rear end. will probaly get that next year.
