Get the IRS and wilwood brake packages, air con and correct wheels

I would only go for the more expensive body if you plan to race it. Otherwise I think the standard body would be OK for just driving and the occasional get on it run. Brooklyn-427 pretty well covered the other things that I would have recommended.

Thanks guys, i don't want to get the package wrong, i would sooner pay for the extras than be disapointed with the build later.regards Sam

Also source your transmission package from summit or modern driveline and have it shipped with kit, id go for a T5 W/C if your staying around the 400hp level. also anything else you can think of like a MSD box , fuel system parts and such like. Maybe look at the power steering option , flaming river do a RHD mustang 2 power rack.
