Remember, the motor was thought to be good for just scrap! John brough it back to life with just a little of massaging. Here are pics from when I bought it.
It sat in the woods like this for 2 years. No hood, no intake, no valve covers. John just polished it up and got it fired back up.
It's come a long way!

You ain't kiddin'. Alot of the switches and a few trim parts came from Ebay. There are a few folks I'd like to thank, as it wouldn't have been possible without them:
Fox GT (for the car!)
Beasty5.0 (lookin' out for me on numerous websites for parts I needed!)
AED in Cameron Park(helped out with stock engine parts and accessories as well as the killer tune!)
Venomousnotch (hookin' me up with the Whipple, IRS brace)
Jesse (don't remember his post name ![[Frown]](frown.gif) ) hooked me up with TONS of his stock SC stuff!
And of course, Craigslist...what would we do without it? lol

Wow! Nice... Great job... Nice color... What is the color that you wanted? "Sonic Blue"... Awesome RWHP & Tq #'s... With 13PSI on Pump gas... Those Whipples are Lightning in a bottle... I can see you have an eye for details... Two Excellent Cobra's! Brother...
John, can I ask you... I have a 03 Cobra with 28,000 miles should I do the Head Cooling Mod... Which one did you go with... Have you changed anything about the crappy IRS... Wheel-hop? What shifter are you using? Right now mine has the Steeda Tri-Ax... I think it's MGW time! The clutch pedal in these cars are way too high... I need to adjust it lower... The seat rails are way to high... I guess I'll be looking for some 99-04 V6 seat brackets... What type of tranny fluid are you using? I can think of alot of other things but I think I'm already asking you alot...
These 03-04 Cobra's from the factory really need some tinkering with to make them as good as a Vette... Thanks a million... Tom
Opps! Sorry John... Maybe should have asked those questions in the Tech Area... I just got carried away...

A vette is in a different class than the mustang cobra.lol
But you could run a 03-04 vette against a 03-04 cobra and they should be pretty close in a 1/4 mile race,depending on the drivers...
