Impatiently waiting

 

this could be win

 

Tell the feds to hurry up with my tax return

 

You sell your car yet Steve?

 

Not yet... got a mp90 project to finish...

I'm ready to junk this car though lol

 

Then what?

 

a v8

 

here u go

 

a v8 what? Lol that's so generic! and to ^ Lawls! Thats some v-8 for ya!

 

lol.......

96-98 cobra specifically

though I may go on a no modding hiatus for a little while after this car, depending on if I land a good job or not.

 

Don't worry you can just touch mine when it's done :p should be good enough. Keep in mind an 8 is going to be an expensive proposition for gas and components, that's almost double the amount of stuff you have moving about...

 

hopefully by then I'll be making money

 

Why would you get the weakest power train in a cobra ever? That tunnel ram V8 in those cobra's dont hold to well! IF your going to get a cobra get a 95! 5.0 baby! You could literally have about 1,000 HP with a 5.0 for under 5K

 

Too bad no one invented forged parts, those would really help :/ and damn dude, I wish I had read this post so I could spend 5k and have a thousand horsepower instead of spending 3k to have my 360 or so. How uncool

 

Even forged part's wont help there's no replacement for displacement(unless your talking termi cobra!) Ive put a 97 on the dyno myself While in school, For under 3k (in part's) in a 5.0 He could have over 500WHP and be completely safe, Dont that too! And a little side note is if it took you 3k to get a tunnel ram with allmost 300 HP and tq from factory your doing it wrong or paid the wrong people!

 

Well there is a nice replacement, and that would be boost, hence why the forged parts help. Plenty of 4-valve mod motors making 600 plus horses, and the 97/98 uses that same 4 valve with a different port design that makes it the tumble and not swirl port. Still don't know what a tunnel ram is, but I would be interesting in knowing the parts list for a reliable 3k dollar 5.0 that makes 500 wheel horses. And I don't pay people, I do the research, so I'm not seeing how my 160 original horse 5.0 out of a town car can make 300 horses at the same time.

 

302s have a major tendency to split, even w/ girdles past x hp/rpm. 4v 94-98 cobra motor doesn't

 

1,000hp for UNDER 5K??? Share a link..
96 started the 4.6. Though if you really want an SN95 check into 95 Cobra R it had a 5.8L.


Anyways this vid is from a guy on here I know.

96 Cobra VS SS/SC

The Cobra mods are a Bama Tune, JLT intake, ORX, Magnapack cat-back, and bald Nitto 555Rs. SS/SC is on a 2.8/boltons 250whp

Steve dont have 30K for a 95R lol

 

There was a cheap tech article on the 5.0 done I forget which car mag did it as it was a few year's ago, Where they did full head and Cam swap, Forged internal's and a S/C Setup Along with atleast a 100 SHot pushing About 1000 HP, For around 5k In parts.

Link below is basically what the article i read was but a TT setup instead which is more costly than a S/C Setup

Tunnel ram is the intake manifold design on the 96-98 cobra's( your car), And the for record the 95 cobra is lighter than the 96-98 and come with a base HP rating of 240, Not the 180 you say above, Where as the 96-98 is rated at about 300 for both Hp and Tq, For 500 Hp And under 3K Head's Cam swap 125 shot and race gas Still under 3k BTW, Seen it on the dyno on a 95 with over 300K on it and still running strong!
