low end budget for now as I put a " new motor and tranny". I say it that way as the shop that did the work took the money and ran. 4 grand for it and it runs like shit.Since its been out of the shop I've replaced: fly wheel,starter x 3, alternator, cap/rotor,wires,plugs,air filter,water temp sensor,water pump,smog pump,serpentine belt,remapped the vaccum lines and about 3500 in rental car fees while it took them 74 days to give me my car back for a new motor and tranny which was never replaced(same engine block rebuilt but the intake never touched, and a used tranny). So I got hosed to say the least. Now what I want are performance heads if available, shift kit for the auto tranny,and anything else to boost this little thing. I want more torque for drag racing but a horsepower boost would be nice too.I love this car and would die for this thing as I came out of a nasty divorce with two things...my 86 droptop stang and my dog.I'm just still new to the scene so anything slung my way for it would be a great help.thanks.

now a lot of bolt on parts for 94-04 wont work on your fox body, but you could do things like ring and pinion gear set, t-lok, etc. and look into j-mods for your transmission.
you have the 7.5" rear, so look at frpp 4.10:1 ring and pinion set and frpp t-lok from "drivetrain specialists" - they are an ebay power seller, and that is where i bought mine. welcome to ModdedMustangs and good luck!
