what makes the 03-04 cobra motor so much better?


I know its got forged internals and 4 valves, and im not saying its a bad motor but supercharge a regular gt 4.6 and you gettin very close to those numbers, with a few more mods passing it. I saw a 2v 4.6 at the ford show in jersey the other weekend runnin 9s. Im not tryin to offend anyone just curious to get some info, Im wonderin if its worth lookin for a cobra or saving money and puttin it into my Gt.

the stock blower in the Cobra sucks.

putting a blower on a GT will get you close to a bone stock Cobras HP range.

true.

but the block on a GT can't handle much more.

Cobra blocks are good for at least double the HP of a GT block.

the 4v motor also responds a hell of a lot better than the 2v motor.

Price wise is worth spending then the money for the cobra though or getting a charger and internals for a GT. Also are the Cobra internals interchangeable with the GTs?

I would get the Cobra honestly.

not all the internals are interchangeable but it can be done with some work.

the cobra has forged internals, the gt does not, they have the same block basically. the shortblock in the gt isnmt as strong. also the cobra has a lot more potential becasue of the 4v head. flows a shit ton better

depends on the type of track

for road racing it is great, drag racing, not so much.
