just reuse your stock block, yout stock forged crank, and have your heads worked on.

for rods and pistons, get brand of your your preference, and do a set of cams that are made more for boost. comp cams are decent, but not really made fo a PD blower. for a 5.0, you will have to resleeve your block, buy big bore block, or stroke it.

i dont know if i should use the stock crank because
1. i dont know if the 99-01 cobras had forged cranks
2.i dont know if i trust the crank i have now my brother threw a rod with this crank(unless the dealership changed the crank which i dont think they did)

Look into the boss 5.0 big bore block and work off of that. it will get you 5.0L of displacement and is a pretty strong block. If you go that way you just need the larger 3.7inch pistons and then you can use stock sized rods and crank.

if the crank isnt cracked or broke, its fine. no matter if its cast or forged. this is where magnaflux is handy, that will tell the tale of its worth. all 96-04 cobras recieved forged cranks as well.
