    Shorty headers will probably not work in the Maverick chassis. You'll have fun with exhaust on the P heads in a Maverick.
    power-250-ish
    speed-with a stock trans and rear...a little faster than a stock AOD mustang in the drags. Top speed w/stock rear should be scary(if you mean that kind of speed). I'd get at least a 3.55 rear and a 2500 stall converter if I were going to drag race it.
