Default 2.3l mustang upgrades?

Before i start i have looked though past post and have no found what i am looking for either i have overlooked it or it was not there. I am looking for a set of underdrive pulleys. a good camshaft, and a header that will fit a 89 2.3l. i have looked though racer walsh and there are many options all i need is something specific. any help would be greatly appreciated!

OK I understand lightly how an under drive pulley works, by doing just that, under driving what ever you apply it to. But does anyone have any numbers on what it can do hp and torque wise? That would help lol :P thanks

so your talking NA?
All the power is in the head.
underdrives = least bang for the buck.
Larger throttle body = better throttle response.
Roller cams are all over ebay 200
bucks for a predator.
RW header 200.00
set of roller rockers for the maybe 50 bucks
you might try a set of 19 lb injecters
but when you install them disconnect your battery for awhile maybe 20 minutes then reconnect start the car and drive for awhile your computer may come close to compensating for the changes. Is this a Maf or VAM car?
read up on Moates for tuning and maf conversion with a 5.0 maf
realistically 160 hp
Alt = Turbo which can make horrendous power ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
