Hello all!

I just shelved my '06 350Z GT and purchased a 1995 Mustang GT the other week, and already have the bug to make it FAST.  You can't do a thing to a Z as they are already tuned to the max for NA apps, and dropping 10k-15k on a proper forced air kit wasn't an option.

I am pretty familiar with the mechanics, engineering etc... and Fords in general.  My first car was a '65 Mustang GT that I restored ground up, and built the engine (except the bottom end).

So far I have purcahsed the following:
- 3.73 gears
- Hedman Shorty EQ Length Headers
- Hedman H-pipe (no cats)
- Catback exhaust (Flowmaster 2-chamber)
- B&M Shorty Shifter
- Eibach Lowering Springs
- KYB Shocks

I want to get roller rockers, but am not sure exactly what to go with.  I have read that 1.72's will give the best performance boost.  Will those work with stock cam and heads?  Will all I need is a modded or aftermarket valve cover?

What else should I aim to get without getting TOO crazy (money wise) to start?

Thanks!

// Paul
