This is what I would do. Not sure what your personal tastes are but at least this should give you a small idea of what's out there. Also, if you do go with headers/pulley then you may need to address...

I would mod it.

Numbers matching every part of the car is a thing of the past. So long as you keep the body and interior clean/garaged there's no reason it couldn't look great for decades to come....

IMO, on the street it's any car with fat meats in the rear that you're still afraid to floor unless you're going straight, know the road, and it's completely dry.

On the track it's any car that...

Keep playing with the shifter and hope you get lucky. If it starts then don't turn it off for anything.

Sucks, but if that doesn't work then the only thing you can really do is replace it...

I've never run a dual battery system so I can't be of much help on your last question and it's been years since I've done a system in one of my cars so take this with a grain of salt.

I know, right!?

For reference, check Ford TSBs 18-2267 and 2175. They acknowledge that there may be problems with the shift forks and provide guidance on what to do if a problem arises.

Sadly, they switched to aluminum on the 18+ models which is why they're failing at such low mileage on relatively stock cars.

That shouldn't be an issue. Think of it like this, the Camaro is the model, the SS is the trim and the 1SS/2SS is the options package.

I've always used Gates if I can't get an AC Delco. Never had any issues. Both are high quality products.

Yea you should only need 2 of them. One for the main accessories and another for the AC.

I'd say chuck it. The way the 3rd brake light is poking out on the left means it's probably tweaked just a bit and not just cracked.

Money aside, if you fix the top it could probably come out...
