04 Mustang Engine in a 66', But Need HP


hey my name is cameron and i'm working on my 66 mustang, but i'm putting in an 04 engine and tranny that i got at a great price. I'm using this one instead of the one thats in it now because it's a 200ci inline 6 with like no hp so i wanted to put this in and be able to get some serious hp out of it.
What would you guys suggest i could add for more hp assuming that i'm just starting out .

Cameron (C-ron) Dunlap

thanx

probably around 5k but piece by piece would just be easier ex. performance heads, intake manifold

did you get the wiring harness with the motor and trans? are you trying to go carbed or EFI?

would consider some of the new CNC'd split-port heads and a CAM from RPM-Mustangs, the studed rockers and related valvetrain parts from SuperSixMotorsport, if EFI would consider the boxed sheetmetal upper intake manifold from SuperSix or if carbed MoranaV6Racing sells a 2 or 4 barrel upper intakes. would also consider an ARP hardware kit
