Don't you also need to swap out K Member etc also? Thats a lot of work to swap in an inferior engine. If you had a 2V NPI I would think differently but a 4V Teksid engine is a damn good starting point for reliability and potential HP.

Sell Cobra, buy 5.0 mustang. That's a ton of work and money. Its a neat project but not worth it.

Id begin working on the 4v. Its a great platform to start on. I love my 4v

 

[Twista]

Ha, we should just trade everything. I dont want my 5.0. You dont want your 4.6L

So let me get this straight....
You took a REAL 97' Cobra, pulled that nice ass motor out to drop in a 5.0??? You ruined the value of your car just so you know, I wouldn't plan on selling it.... Ever because nobody is going to want to buy a 97' Cobra with a 5.0. Only reason why people buy them is for the motor that's in them.
On another note good luck.

 

[copmagnet]

I'll buy your stock cobra motor.

Can't bypass the CCRM. It has the fuel pump relay, fan relay, and AC relay built in.

And you just destroyed a good car. Unless it's a straight up race car, I don't see the point in the swap. To each their own though I guess

 

[rz5.0]

What he said.. You need the ccrm.. Can't bypass.. I might have one laying around..

Whats this thread about, Destroying a cobra? Throwing Hp Out the window?

 

[timeoutracing]

i took the 4v out because it was knockn i done bypased it tell i get one cobra front end still in the car so wen i build my 4v will have everything to go back in the car but i plan on stroking and go bigger with the cams and heads think ima KBell or make it carb with crank trigger its a all aluminium motor

 

[Cpotts13]

Can we pretend like we know how to type?

 

[sn95jones]

i plan on stroking and go bigger

I go bigger and stroke all the time but I don't plan on it, it just kinda happens..... Just saying..

Wanna trade with me?

 

[Locomoco]

Man that's some crazy stuff going from a svt cobra 4.6 to 5.0. I have a 95 cobra 5.0 and keeping it that way because it's what made my car special. You could have got another engine other then a 5.0 and kept the value of the car. But hey to each there own

 

[Shifty Powers]

WTF is he saying?!!?! Someone translate
