i have heard 4:10s and drag radials do wonders for fox bodies...dont see why it wouldnt for the snake either...

Is the car an auto or manual?
If auto get you a stall, maybe shift kit
if manual get a Steeda Tri-ax or similar shifter.

No SVT Cobra was ever made with an Auto. The transissions are very weak, even in the GT's with MUCH less power.

12's are possible but youre gonna want it chipped or a programmer to take full advantage of the power. i was running 13.5's all night long in my dads 97 Cobra. 2.0 60 ft's with street tires, cattless x-pipe with flows. Pro 5.0 shifter and a CAI. I think with a good driver and a good launch you can see high 12's. 4.10's will be a good choice, but even a 4.30 would be good for these cars, as they LOVE the high rpm range. So the quicker you get them up there, the better they respond.

Good luck

good point, i just didnt know if the one he was looking at would have been swapped to C4 or something.
