its a 98 cobra. not sure on the mileage. im tradin him my 03 ranger for it.

the car is black on black, cobra r hood, i think he cut the stock springs to lower it but not sure, the motor has the mach 1 crank, rods, pistons, etc., exhaust(o/r x w/ flows), has 4.10s in it but he is gonna put the 3.27's in it for me, and nitto DR's

tell me what you think. this is all in the best interest for the 5.0 of course

nice, i will trade you an 02 ranger for it after you get it, hahaha!

90five0oh · Mar 11, 2008

haha yeah i bet. im gonna DD the cobra so i wont use the 5.0 as much and put more miles on it. plus the 5.0 is gettin a h/c/i 331 so i need somethin better than that for a DD lol

That Cobra will smoke the Fox in every performance category. Why does it have Mach1 internals? IDK if the Mach1 crank is forged like ALL the SN95 Cobras. Also leave the 4.10 in, that is one of the most important mods to have in a 4V. Night and day difference in how the car behaves.
Thinking about the Mach internals, did he just swap a whole Mach1 block? That would suck loosing the Italian aluminium block for the cast iron version

Make sure it isn't abused, but with new parts like that, gears and DRs, sounds like it might have lead a rough life.

or it was driven like a mustang should be.

stykthyn · Mar 11, 2008

yeah that sounds fishy, I wouldnt trade a cobra for a truck unless I was trying to unload a steaming pile. especiallly when rangers are a dime a dozen.

Mustang5L5 · Mar 11, 2008

Why is he putting 3.27's in?

Those DOHC's love 4.10's or higher!

Mr. Rustypwnz · Mar 11, 2008

sounds like a pos to me, talkin about putting the 3.27's back in? why?

bentley429 · Mar 11, 2008

Turbo possibly? With a 4v though not sure if it needs those gears, maybe 3.55 or 3.73's?

LaserSVT · Mar 11, 2008

I think 3.73s are perfect but alot of guys like the 4.10s for any Mod motor

Trbofox · Mar 11, 2008

Without a power adder those 4:10's will be alot more fun to drive on the street.

90five0oh · Mar 11, 2008

look guys. i know the person i am gettin the car from. he doesnt play bull**** like yall are thinkin. as a matter of fact he does alot of work on my 5.0 and im puttin the 3.27's back in because this is a DD and the 4.10's are a bit much. yes im sure ill change em out sooner or later but for now thats what its gettin.

Not calling any bs here. I am seriously curious, if he used all Mach1 internals did he use the Mach1 block too? And the gear thing I can tell you first hand, I went from 3.27 to 3.73s and have no MPG difference and from what I hear the 4.10s only loose 1mpg on average. The car is so much faster with the gear it FEELS like an extra 30hp. I know there is no hp difference for those getting ready to flame, just feels that much quicker.

EDIT: NM I see in another thread its a GT or Mark block, two bolt you said? Thats why the trade, dosent have the valueable block in it anymore

90five0oh · Mar 11, 2008

well like i said ill probly put some gears in it later but for now thats what im gonna do no matter what anyone else says. and no its not the so called "valuable" block anymore. sorry to dissappoint but i am very happy with what im doing

and im not tryin to get defensive or anything like that just so yall know

umm.....no thanks.

One issue your going to run into, the Cobra will probably be faster, handle better, more comfortable, sound better, and attract more ladies. You wont want to drive the fox anymore.
