    I think it would be worthwhile.

    Money you enjoy wasting is NOT wasted money... unless your wife finds out.

    I would do it personally.
    Kick myself in rear for waiting so long to do mine.

    Its how the cars should have come from the factory.  The improvement in handling and stability is worthwhile on any early Mustang.

    My brother bought a new shiny 65 6cyl 4-speed Mustang coupe when I was 16. Took my drivers test in it. We did the drop on it and cleaned up at the local parking lot solo events with that thing. It embarrassed a lot of Porsches!
