03-04 cobra motor into a 94-95 mustang...im assuming its pretty much the same swap as into a fox correct? different k member, wiring, fuel system...what am i forgetting?
these swaps are getting cheap!

a lot easier if you start with a 96-98 gt if that's the body style you want. You can reuse the stock wiring and computer from the gt, and only swap the drivetrain.
to do it in a 94/95, you might as well buy a wrecked terminator and plan on swapping everything, all the wiring, the dash cluster, steering column, k-member, etc. [ February 09, 2010, 04:40 PM: Message edited by: Blind ]

im just brainstorming here, about to pull the trigger on this though.

It'd have to be REAL inexpensive to justify doing that swap. You can easily find 03/04 cobras for around 15k. But that's just me, if I'm going to spend 10k on a swapped gt you might as well shell out another 5k and then have the real deal. They look very nice.

yeah doing these swaps can only be justified by your own preference. if u like the new edge body style, buying an 03/04 cobra will be more cost effective than building up an sn95. if u like the sn95 better but want the terminator drivetrain, ull have to spend the bucks to get there unless you're lucky like some to have gotten a trashed terminator for less than 5k.

you need a lot more than the motor to throw it into a 94/95.
