You don't mention them, but if you haven't added gears by now, that should be your next modification. If you drive your Mustang on the street a lot, especially the highway, go with a 3.73 gear. If the car is your weekend ride, go with a 4.10. After the gears, it's time for a heads, cam, intake package.

I am not a big believer in electric fans, but that's just a personal preference. All my Fox-body cars had stock fans and fan clutches. If you have your heart set on an electric fan, do your research before you make a decision. My '94 Cobra came with an electric fan, and I'm battling that thing right now. I also installed an electric fan on one of my past Fox-bodies, and when the thing would cycle on it about shut off the car. It was a huge electrical draw. I know there are good electric fans out there, but do your research before pulling the trigger. Good luck.

Gears (3.73 here), heavy duty clutch (I use a Cobra), sub frame connectors, South side traction bars, drive shaft loop...endless modifications bro.
