With 3.0 gears in the rearend, you may find it difficult to get it to hook no matter what cam you use. If you're running a single plane manifold like the Torker 11, I'd say use a duration that starts the torque/hp curve about 2500-3000rpm, +10 degrees on the exhaust and a stall converter to match. resized/peened stock rods are good for 5500-5800rpm, which is going to be about your max with that c/r. This is a truck site, so for better info I'd try one of the BBF Mustang forums like
