Read somewhere that someone was trying to make an adapter plate but Haven't heard much more about it.

its gonna cost just about the same to just buy a kit.you need timing cover,accessory pullies,lower intake,heat exchanger,aux. water pump,wiring harness,comp,thats just some of it.the only way this swap is affordable is if you found a terminator guy going turbo.usually they just wanna trade for your stock parts but yours isnt 99-04 so that might make the trade more difficult.i got an 03 mach and lucked out on some stuff but had to go to ford for some of it and you dont want to know how much that cost.

The 96-98 'B' heads will not work with the 03/04 Cobra intake. You must swap them over to 99+ Cobra heads.

You're also going to have to remove the knock sensors & possibly grind down the bosses to get the intercooled mainfold to fit.

that list originated on mach1registry.org.thats if youre swapping to a mach motor
 
Posted by caliboy08 (Member # 5780) on :
 
i didn't know that. it'll be close to the same though. the mach motor is basically a 01 cobra motor right?
 
Posted by 64valves (Member # 7295) on :
 
not really. the intake manifold,intake cams,heads,exh mans,comp ratio,etc...
 
Posted by 93PONY (Member # 60) on :
 
On a 96-98 Cobra there is even more involved in the swap.

Notice the difference?
96-98 'B' heads:
 -

99+ heads:
 -

damn i didnt think that much was involved , maybe i should just go with a KB or something cuz i like the top mount chargers
 
Posted by Notch1320 (Member # 2647) on :
 
I agree... not worth the effort. Maybe on a Mach 1.

someone on SVt performance made an adapter plate to fit a lighting blower on a 96-98 cobra. It ended up working but he's now got a blower sticking out of his hood.. he was in the process of coming out with a plate for the 03 eaton, but i believe he's going through a divorce so the project has been delayed.
Damn women [Razz]

The problem with the KB kits for 'B' headed Cobra's is they don't have an intercooler.
A KB without an intercooler is asking for trouble. 200+ degree intake temps....add pump gas & you'll end up spending a lot more $$$ than you bargined for.

Dam even tho I like roots style better out of every power adder it looks like I might have to go wit a centri blower I thought nitrous 4 like a min but its not enough 4 tha short block

you can run a 100 shot all day long.that and some good bolt ons and youll be smokin
 
Posted by red GT black rallyes (Member # 4495) on :
 
But with only 8.5 cr its gonna be kinda weak with no blower don't u think?
 
Posted by 64valves (Member # 7295) on :
 
you got 8.5 to 1 thats very low.do you have those pistons in already.
