I have a 99 v6 mustang with a manual transmission. I am getting my transmission built in 2 weeks by ford and am getting high perfromance parts. I also am ordering some 4.10 gears. Right now i have almost $1500 to spend on my motor and was wondering what all you guys would recremend for making my car faster. I am wanting to know what kind of cams,crank,rockers,lifters,pistons (boring .20-.30 over), headers and exhaust you guys think are good. If you guys have any thing else i didnt mention that will help me out i would really apreciate this. I plan on having this all done by the end of feburary. Please dont say a v8 swap i already pay $150/month insuarance and cant really aford a v8.

Comp Cams now has several different cams for the V6 mustangs, get a cam from them. also get 1.73 roller rockers.
Also, you can get a F-150 4.2L long block, just bolt in your oil pump, and oil pan. then both in the upper and lower intake from your 3.8L.

The 4.2L and 3.8L are the same engines, the crank and rods are different.

i heard about the long block 4.2l how much more horse does that add compared to the 3.8l in there now? do you know how much those comp cams cost so i can shop around.
