Just bought a 96 Cobra, new to modular motors.

92Notch · February 28th, 2011, 08:58 PM

This is my second mustang, first mustang was a 5.0 and I never thought I'd get rid of it untill it was wrecked, so here I am in the SVT section. Just bought a 96 Cobra the other day, never really liked the SN95 body style but lately it's been growing on me, saw this cobra on craigslist, went to go see it and bought it the next day. Mods are

01 Cobra swap (Original motor threw a rod)
Some type of cheapy CAI
O/R Bassani X pipe
SLP LM1's
Aluminum driveshaft
FRP Aluminum flywheel
3:73's in the rear
Cobra R hood (Wish I had the stock hood)
5% tint
Boss rear wing
10th ann Terminator cobra replica rims
Pro 5.0 short shifter
T56 6 speed

The paints pretty damn good for original, im the 3rd owner, 1st and second owner always garaged it, small chip on the lower front bumper, and a knick on the gass tank lid, other than that no fading, interior is great besides one small tear on the side of the drivers seat.

I have a few extra dollars to spend on mods so any suggestions would be nice.
