I have a 96 Cobra that has about 80k on her. I have done a lot of mods including T56, full exhaust w/ long tubes, timing adj. mass air flow. etc. The car is just my toy and I bought a Vortech T-trim for it so I am going to have the bottom end rebuilt. I need some suggestions as to what products to use (pistons,rods etc.) and if I should do anything with my crank or if it is already balance and ready to run? I also would like some advice on my heads. Should I try to put some 03/04 cobra heads on or should I just have my heads rebuilt w/ blower cams put in em? I am wanting a 500 hp daily driver that I never need to do anything to except oil changes. I would appreciate any advice or peoples good/bad experiences.
Thanks a million!!!!

Although StangNet can be a great source of information sometimes questions are too advanced to be answered in a timely manner.

I think you should make this same thread on Modular Fords.
