Could we see a picture of the engine conpartment.

I'll have to get a pic don't have on hand. I have less then 10k in my whole car. So I don't see where I can get a 03-04 for that. Plus I thought this was considered a hobby for most people. Which would mean I like working on stuff.

You would have $10,000 in the blower and 4 valve. Most people that own mustangs drive them Daily and if they have the money get a second vehicle, hobby yes but the hobby they drive to work. That would be amazing if you built that yellow car with a blown 4 valve 4.6 for $10,000.

Goodness I don't where you shop for parts but I can get a 03-04 longblocks for $6000-6500 and that comes with the eaton stuff. You can get full drivetrains with tranny's for around 8k-9k.


I don't have a 03-04 Cobra longblock though, mine is out a mach. Those can be had for much cheaper.

Then you get to an Eaton swap and those can be had for anywhere from $1900ish to $2200ish.

The car retained the stock auto so that saved a chunk. If you really want to pick my car apart we should probably go to PM's because I don't really want to hi-jack this guys thread anymore.

Depends on how far you're going to go. If you're going to replace everything anyway start with the cheaper car.

A turbo auto Mach would be the way to go IMO, get an 03 Cobra spoiler and you'll be golden

I had a Mach, wanted a Cobra at first but the Mach is a better looking car. I miss my Mach. I miss it badly...

Price is way too high for a mach with almost 90,00 miles on it.
