Is that a real 93 Cobra? Correct spoiler (with tail pipes opposed to GTs with "dumps" before rear bumper), tail lights, rear bumper, wheels, side skirts, but you don't EVER see guys dig into them. Would need to see the driver's side to know if it is, 93 Cobras had identical Cobra badges on the sides, i.e. they were both facing to the right, so on the driver's side, the Cobra badge actually has the snake facing the rear of the car. 94 was the first year of both Cobras facing forward.

Kudos to that guy if it is an original 93!

Dude in the 5.0 Cobra sure was slow to shift. The new 5.0 got out of the hole good.

Lol, that's an 04 Cobra color option. 93s came in either vibrant red non-clearcoat or vibrant red clearcoat, the other 2 color options were teal metallic clearcoat or black clearcoat.

Why on God's green earth does it have a built bottom end in it?

With 500, I figured it was a stock long block cobra motor with a turbo and maybe a intake, stock cam of course.

I've been putting down 472 on a 61k mile stock 90lx short block for 3 years. Shift it at 5700 obviously, but damn I'd never build the motor.

Yeah, you're about at the end of the safe zone to the tire. 500 to the tire is about at the end of where you wanna go. You're shifting low, which is good, will probably live a long long time. I didn't know you had a fox! You have pics?

Mike Morris put, I wanna say, 520s to the tire in his stock 302 block, until he got greedy at the track and twisted the dizzy too far clockwise
