Default Need your help guys

I need some advice as to what type of items to buy for Hubby for his Mach 1. He really loves his car(maybe more than me - haha), and I would love to give him something that would knock his socks off.........

Now that said, I have already done the exhaust thing, new shifter, new badges, and new air intake

And last, please don't say Super Charger, as that is out of my budget.......

Come on guys help me out..........I appreciate any and all help...........................

oh ok 3k...this should be easy.
#1 intake spacer $100- helps the airflow into the engine and adds some seat of the pants feel
#2 aluminum drifshaft $200- reduces the parasitic loss that the drivetrain robs, this is due to less rotational mass.

those are hands down the two best mod's under $500

DO NOT get the underdrive pullies, they have a history of break oil shafts, and then you blow your motor.

If the budget doesn't matter too much, you could also check into some wheels.

yes he would love wheels, but I have no idea what kind or what look he really wants.... I don't want to buy something he hates......

It's the Gray Metalic Mach 1 with Black Racer Stripes.....it's pretty.....but I will let him do the wheels.........just looking for the mods
