ill start off with an introduction..
im 23 years old, ive built 65-69 mustangs with my dad all my life, owned five of them, currently own a 67 Fastback with all the GT500 body pieces (not that disgusting 'gone in 60 seconds' style). to be completely honest, i am somewhat scared of new cars because of all the new technology to hassle with. ive done all there is to do on 60's mustangs and have always had a secret obsession with 2000 to 20004 mustangs.
i am Selling my shelby clone (some Very detailed ads have already been posted) because i cant stand Not having a new mustang any longer
my goal
i want to have a track car to compete with all my friends BMW's, Subaru's, Porche's, and so on.
my questions for you
Q: i LOVE Kenne Bell supercharges, is there a better/cheaper decent alternative? (im looking at getting their 350+HP added kit to bolt on to a 03-04 cobra, for 5k)
Q: im looking at buying an 03-04 Cobra to have a strong stock block to work with (there are cheap sales for 10-16k), is this a smart investment for that price?
Q: would buying an 00-04 GT for 6-9k and upgrading internals be a better route than the cobra?
Q: is the cheapest route worth the hassle? (crate blocks / picking the bottom and top end myself, finding an 00-04 body in an auction or junkyard)
these are just the basics that i need to know of soon, as i want to make a purchase within the next few days to week.
so please throw some build suggestions / routes to take out there for me!
