You got a great car, and engine combo man. I helped Bobby install that 454 into the SS last summer. Thing is a beast to drive, that's for sure! I was sad to see that car go. Real sad. But the Mustang fits his needs better as stated.

So where's this video of the SS racing a blown GTO?

I know exactly what you mean about being nice in different ways.

Can't wait to see the vid. How'd the SS do against a blown GTO?

Very nice trade up. Car looks great with the FM5s. I recommend you paint the bumper flat black (the area the grille is).

For a Mustang... 03 Cobras look great. Wish we had forged internals from the factory. Always preferred the looks of the 4th Gen F-bodies over most cars. If that wasn't the case then I'd probably own something different . I'm sure that 454 hauls.

*Also looks like you need to re-align the hood. Big gap up front.

Yah, they are both sweet cars in different ways! I will own a 03 cobra again someday!

The reason the hood is like that is because the front plastic bracket isn't reinstalled yet, it pulls the front bumper a little closer.
