Just kidding, although that would make for a decent sbc budget build...
The plan is:
GT40P heads - Mild home port job, then off to get milled.
GT40 intake - tmoss moss ported lower. Tom and I like to do some trading, so the port work will only cost me around 40-50 bucks out of pocket.
65MM Throttle - From an explorer, modded to work with the fox.
Cam - either going to keep the stock cam, or order a custom cam -unsure at this point.
Mac long tube headers (just waiting to find a good deal)
O/R h-pipe
Probably flowmasters.
sn95 rear with disc brakes
Explorer 3:73 gears.
Sn95 (94-95) front spindles, rotors, etc.
New edge PBR front calipers
Aerostar alum driveshaft

3.55 are a good all around gear set - I think you'll be happy with one of the alphabet cams using the P heads.
If you don't want to go with any PCM tuning - I think the B is a safe bet.
I ran a best of 13.15 with stock cam and short block with twisted wedge top end, headers, 24lb injectors and larger than stock maf and throttle body - 5 speed, drag radials - I'm sure you can do better than that with the list of parts you're putting together.
It was impossible to launch that car with the drag radials - never did try it with slicks.There's always something new to learn.

Holy crap, what a difference a sponge bath and some cheap turtle wax can make. I didn't get the car finished before my cousin had to leave for work, so I ended up just snapping some quick pictures with my camera just to give you an idea of how it looks. The car has a ton of metal flake and really shines, but my crappy camera picks none of that up... lol
Anyways, I will shut up and get on with the pictures...

I wasn't real meticulous with the interior. Just a quick vacuum (hit a few spots with tuff stuff), and then gave it a quick wipe down.
