What is the big difference between a regular 96-98 mustang and a cobra?

Like I know the 01+ are S/C right?

Whats the big deal about the SN95's?

I have seen a few around here for a decent looking deal, so Im kind of interested thanks!

the difference between a 98 mustang and a 98 mustang Cobra is the the DOHC motor in the Cobra.
the 99-01 Cobra had better heads than the 98-98 Cobras. the 03-04 Cobra has a forged engine and a supercharger.

OOOO ok think I understand now...

Now for one more newb question..

How much better are the DOHC vs SOHC (guessing thats what the reg SN95 has)

Rep'd btw lol

 

[HMUSN]

Much better. Much Much better. The regular mustang GT's have the SOHC engine while the Cobra's (and Mach's) have the DOHC.

If I happen to run across a SN95 cobra I wouldnt mind getting it if its a good deal.

Just -03 and -04 are supercharged. But they also are the only ones with independent rear suspension, which is good stock vs. stock GT setup, but with much fewer upgrades available.

 

[Smoothgrandmama]

The 03-04's are not the only one with the IRS. 99 and 01 Cobras also have it

ok so another question now LOL

whats different between 99-02 then the 03-04 cobras (besides being S/C with forged internals)

 

[HMUSN]

better heads.

 

[Smoothgrandmama]

Different cams, and intake obviously for the supercharger.
T-56 6 speed for the termi's
5 speed for the 99, 01's

The 03-04's are not the only one with the IRS. 99 and 01 Cobras also have it
