There was no 2000 cobra, unless you are talking about the 5.4 in the cobra r. Don't know about the fit, but I am sure you would need all the accessories from that engine(unless you want to fab up brackets for everything like alt, a/c, power steering, etc).

How bout just get the Mach 1 motor 32v 4.6L at www.karkraft.com ...I think that is the link...they sell for a bit over $3000 brand new...

Yeah they didn't make any 00 or 02 (I think in Australia they are labeled as 02's) Cobras...

Good Luck

That would be so rad to have a Mach 1 motor/shaker in a Fox... that's really not a bad price either, you just have to factor in all the other crap you have to buy to get it in there.

I'd like to drop a 32V in my fox when this motor goes, it would be a hell of a project, thats for sure.
