First off let me say hello....Hello. I have recently purchased a 1994 Cobra with 55K and I am itching to get this thing moving down the road faster. My suspension is already in the works so I have taken care of that first. I have have been around Mustangs for a while especially the 5.0. I am also a work as a contrustion equipment tech/mech so I am not a newb when it comes to wrenching on a vehicle.
Now, what I am looking for is possible engine combos for my car. Being as the mileage is low on the car I want to keep the stock bottom end for a while. For now I would like to shoot for something in the mid 12 sec range. I am going with a street suspension and 315 DR in the rear so I will have some traction. The car also has 3:55's so that helps. I am curios to know what things work well together. What part of the Cobra setup can I keep. For instance if I get a good PnP on the upper and lower intake what are its limitaions. I believe the car comes with 1.7RR's stock correct? Here were my thoughts. I was going to do GT40X heads and maybe a B or E cam. I eventually want to run a SC so I want the setup to be run will with mild boost. The care is not a daily driver, but I do want it to be some what tame on the street. Also, any info on what else will need to be upgraded as well. Like fuel and ignition upgrades. I am looking for specific recommendations so I can start getting the budget ready. Thanks guys!
