Bolt on performance
What's the best stuff to do to the sn95 5.0 performance wise to get a little more power?
Right now I have cold air intake, fox body race intake, 75mm tb, 24lb injectors, matching mass air meter for 24lb injectors, a/c and air pump bypass, shorties off road h pipe magnaflow straight through race mufflers, 3.73 gears

Kept to basics, the industry recommendations for a first set of bolt-ons are as follows:
5.0
o Rear axle gears
o Pulleys
o Headers
o High-flow H-pipe
o Cold-air intake
o Mass air meter
o Throttle body
4.6
o Rear axle gears
o Pulleys
o Cold-air intake
o Mass air meter
o Throttle body
o Intake manifold and cylinder head

It's a pretty good read.
Hope this helps a little.

What he said right here. once you do the minor stuff you have no choice but to dig into the motor no matter what it is. do not forget all supporting mods ie: larger injectors, fuel pump and tune ( shop vs hand held/chip) for starters.

I need to do this as my next project.
What was your exact list of mods Chris?
And what gears did you run?
300rwhp N/A can be had with GT40P heads and the stage 1 cam ,E cam, etc. a holley system max, RPM, Perfromer or street heat intake will do it. AFR heads, TW heads are also decent choices with the above cams or even the stage 2, Anderson cams or custom or even the Trick flow top end kit will all be in the 300rwhp or slightly above with depending on the head/tune and brand of dyno.
Ya I think if I keep the car I'm going to do hci on it and ya I have plans for the fuel system also, I'd like to have it set up so I could run 42lbs + injectors no problem. And the tuner I'd like to put a laptop in the car and tune myself, I plan on doing forcing induction mayb even putting it on the bottle. The car is only weekend driver I've been building
And I heard from a guy that races only mustangs that you can get some power from gt40 but you better with aluminum heads cause they are lighter with same if not more power, which is nice for shaving off those seconds
