Maybe you have done this already, but have you verified the VIN number is a Cobra VIN versus a Fauxbra?hey gang, new to the forums but not new to the sn95’s or Mustangs in general for that matter. I’ve owned 8 mustangs through the years but have been on a hiatus for quite some time. I have had several Fox bodies and 3 sn95’s. A red 94 cobra that I had when I was 21(I totaled it out....twice!) a 95 Cobra R and now another 94 Cobra that is going to be a father son project that will eventually turn into my sons car assuming he holds up his end of the deal with behavior and grades. He is 9 now so a lot of things can change between now and then. Especially knowing full and well that he is “my son”...lol!
I have been looking for a while now and was blown away at what had happened to the prices of Fox bodies and sn95 Cobras. After some looking I stumbled across a white 94 Cobra that started its life as a FoMoCo executive car for the first two years of its life then was sold to a single adult female in 96, driven for 13 years accumulating 87,000 miles then put into storage for exactly 10 years before being unearthed and put up for sale where I found it. My son Devin and I went to look at it and after a while and a few tears being shed by the owner we struck a deal. This car is by no means pristine or a cream puff. It is exactly what I said it was earlier, a father son “project”. It was only driven for one winter but the environment it was stored in was less than ideal so there is some underbody corrosion and oxidation on some of the hardware under the hood. Nothing that can’t be addressed over time.
My intentions for the car are to leave it somewhat stock (it is 99.9% unmolested now) with only a full exhaust with off road x pipe and 40 series Flowmasters, a set of 3:73 gears, a CAI and probably some under driven pulleys. I know how much he’ll i raised with 240hp back in the day and like I said, I cannot deny him....he is “my son” lol.
I was thinking about running a Marty report on the car because it is equipped fairly oddly for a Cobra. It is white with grey cloth interior and no Mach 460 sound. I guess I didn’t realize that Ford even made the Mach 460 sound an option in the Cobra? Does anyone have an idea how many might have been optioned this way?
It’s been quite some time since I have had my head under the hood of a 5.0 Windsor. Any tips, tricks or advice for “must do’s” other than the obvious for a car like this that has been sitting for 10 years?
Thanks in advance,
Junkman
Couple questions....looking to wake up the ol 94 a little, like I said earlier, nothing wild.
What off road H pipe is the best? Planning on that and an American Thunder Flowmaster cat back system as well.
Why does the MSD distributor seem to be such a popular mod? I don’t understand what the benefit would be?
What else could/should I do short of forced induction? CAI? Throttle body, Mass air? Cam? Roller rockers?
Here is an old link about the SVT phone number.Oh yeah, you should call SVT (I forget the number but you can find it online easily) and get your build number!

I have never tried the hotline, but it is certainly worth a try! let us know if you get through and they can answer your question.The one thing I would really like to know and the Marti report did not clarify is how many were made like mine without the Mach 460 sound system? I have never seen a 94 or 95 Cobra without one other than this one. And according to the Marti report it was clearly built without it. Do you think the SVT hotline would be able to tell me?
