    4.6 Cobra or 5.0 Cobra?

    Lol yeah I noticed that too, it was kinda confusing, like everyone thought the grass was greenier on the other side. But everyone seems to agree on the low mileage being the best, and I think having the 5.0 Cobra would be more unique. And I'm keeping my Focus, so it would be mainly a weekend...

    4.6 Cobra or 5.0 Cobra?

    Thanks guys, I was really hoping to hear good things about the 5.0. How would you compare the sound of the exhaust?

    4.6 Cobra or 5.0 Cobra?

    If I could pick either one with the same milage and condition I'd probably go for the 4.6. And really I hadnt even be thinking about 5.0's until I saw this real low mileage one. It does sound like the 4.6 is the better choice, but those 5.0 cobras seem to have a better nostalgia to them, and...

    5.0 Cobra or 4.6 Cobra?

    Hey guys! Its been a while since I've been on here. Well I sold my 97' GT a little over a year ago after I got a new 07' Focus for graduation. My GT had been having problem after problem and my dad was having to pay for it, and was tired of it. So he bought me a new car that he felt would be...

    Suede or Leather?

    I already posted this in the 4.6l section, but then realized that it might get better response down here. I was thinking about trading in my 97 GT for an 03-04 cobra, and was wondering what y'all think about the suede seats. I have suede bolsters on my racing seats right now, but its cloth...

    Suede or leather?

    I was thinking about trading in my 97 GT for an 03-04 cobra, and was wondering what y'all think about the suede seats. I have suede bolsters on my racing seats right now, but its cloth in the middle, and the bolsters dont seem to get nearly as much wear and tear as the middle and back of the...

    new manifold

    My current manifold on my 97 GT is leaking anti-freeze really bad, and the shop told me I would have to get a new one to stop the leak, anyways, I was looking around at prices and saw a few performance manifolds that say they give you up to 20 more hps. So I was wondering if anyone here has any...

    Pulleys

    That extra power was what really drew me to their deal in the first place. He was charging about the same price for the 2000 block, that I had seen for a 97' on ebay. When I found out that the extra power didnt come from the block (which I guess I should have looked into first) I was quite...

    Pulleys

    Yes they did use all the old parts, but my question is well the old pulleys off a 97' fit on a 2000. The fan belt for a 2000 is shorter than a fan belt on a 97', and since they told me they used a 2000 block, would the pulleys from a 97' block fit on it? I was kinda thinking that would be the...

    Pulleys

    Thats what i thought but the dealership says 'no' to that, there has to be some kind of serial number on the block, but my question is where would it be?

    Pulleys

    HI, sorry to keep bugging y'all with the same stuff, but I have another question with my new engine. For those who may not rember my situation, I have a 97' GT with 125,000 miles on it, and the original engie went out on me, and I had to replace it. The shop that did the work told me they had a...

    Difference between 96-98 and 99-04

    Ya, I knew the 98' had like 225 while the 96-97 had 215hp, I figured since it was such a small increase in power, they just tweaked the exhaust or something.

    Difference between 96-98 and 99-04

    Ok the shop said they would have the vin # from the 2000 mustang tommorrow, so I should be able to find out whether it was windsor or romeo and a few other things that I have been curious about. The new block does have all the old componets on it, they only ordered a bare block. Does anyone...

    Difference between 96-98 and 99-04

    Do y'all think I got any extra power from the newer block (that is if it does actually turn out to be a 2000, and not another 97') other than it just having lower millage?
