It's now sitting at 75000 miles, and the engine is starting to run a little rough. I just thought I'd do a clean sweep and replace all "maintenance" type parts, and fuel injectors was one of the things that came to mind.  Anyhow, so far the consensus is Autolite plugs, MSD wires, factory coil packs, EGR, fuel filter, PCV, and MAYBE the injectors.As for future plans, right now I'm dumping mod money into my '05 Mustang to prepare for a new racing season in March, but in the summer 2008 I've got listed for the '97:Livernois PI improvement intake manifold/installation kitComp Cams (can't remember which one but it was mild and would clear the stock pistons)BBK headers and catted h-pipe replace all convertible top seals (leaks in a hard rain at the side window midpoint)white face gaugesautometer pod and water temp, oil pressure and trans temp gauges17x10.5 out back with wider rubberClean and LIGHTLY dress up the engine baydecent headlight replacements that don't look like they came from the rice factoryCobra or cowl hoodSee my signature for link to all mods (page 2 on cardomain).I'm not likely to do the heads unless I come across something cheap, and a poweradd (turbo, s/c or nitrous) just isn't part of the plan for now. The goal is 275rwhp NA, and that should be just fine for tooling around in dry weather. Frankly, if I had another 5k for a s/c I'd put it into a new paint job. The original owner was in Texas and lived down a gravel road--the finish is a mess in places. I love the Pacific green color and would stick with that.Sorry for all the lame questions folks but I'm a transformed Mopar/Chevy guy. We got our first Mustang in 2004, and now have 4 in the family (two for me, 1 each for my boys)--we've gone through one fox body and sold it, now have a second getting built for street/strip. Still learning the ropes on the 302 and 4.6 liters.John</blockquote>
