I believe the tailpipe hangers will have to be relocated, and the pipes are actually longer than fox style pipes. You'd want to cut them down, otherwise they would look pretty goofy sticking out from the bumper.

Not a chance. The exaust location on a 5.0 and 4.6 are way different.

...wait a sec. Does the 96 Cobra still have a 5.0..I think I remember something about that? If so the exhaust will bolt up at the collector but not fit right under the rest of the car. My bad. Sorry.
