im not sure whether the key is made out of a hardened steel, but im pretty sure you could knock the old key out, get new key stock and get to work. the real hang up would be verifying its standard key stock or if its "special"

your stock cams are pressed on gears. there was some bolt on cam gears for mustangs around 99. you need those, and they need to be modified to allow you to index the cams correctly

I don't think the kit is worth the money, as it does not include the solid lifter, etc. I assume you are speaking of the Comp Cams kit. You can dig up what you need from your buds, etc, but you'll need the lifter. built54, help here?

Here's a goody:http://www.modulardepot.com/articlesp.php?aid=32
