Looked like fun! I'm not doggin the forum at all for this, but I'm surprised to see that they allow street racing postings like this. I used to be a Mustang guy (it looked nice and sounded good, but about as fast as a 91 Prelude....LOL) and I was a member on about 5 different Mustang forums. None would allow any posts related to street racing, it was basically instantly closed/deleted.

Anyway, OP, your car has peaked my interest in cammnig. From what I see in your sig, you haven't done any head/intake work besides pushrods and valve springs, right? Were those necessary, or can a cam be tossed in there with a tune and headers and be safe/reliable? Also, mind me asking what I could expect to spend for something similar to what you've got? I'd love to get to a 'real' (wheel) 400 hp without having to maggie her...

then they decided svt 'fire everyone in 2002' and hired a bunch of new guys lets do a 2003 ... cobra . forge everything, we dont know what we are doing, throw a blower on there.. do all we can to finally beat something...
yet the sales flock to the ford anyways... i dont know..

That was closer than I expected. Still, good job.

He has decent power for his weight. I didn't realize how light they were.

Or perhaps, You explain to everyone why there is no such thing as a 2002 SVT cobra?
Or are you saying the sales of ford wasnt huge?
