Default 08 GT500 Whipple 4.0 Heavily modified

Year: 2008
Make: Ford
Model: Mustang Cobra
Price: $47000
Mileage: 13600
Private or Dealer Listing: Private Listing
Location (State): PA
Color: Blue
Transmission: Manual
Drivetrain: Rear Wheel Drive
LS Engine?: Car has other engine

This is a 2008 Cobra I was building as a street/strip exhibition vehicle to go into the 8's on the 6 speed. The funding is starting to get out of hand on the car and its becoming more of a straight on drag vehicle than a fun street car so I'm deciding to try and move from this into a C6 Z06. The car is around 750rwhp @ 19lbs of boost on 93 w/ torco booster in the tank.

Mods are:

Whipple 4.0l Competition blower
American Racing 1 7/8 stainless steel headers
Offroad X pipe
bassani axle backs
Moser 9" rear end
3.73 gears
35 spline axles
Detroit locker
BMR Subframe connectors
BMR tubular K member
BMR Tubular A arms
BMR tubular rad support and front sway bar delete
TRZ chrome moly lower control arms w/ heim joints
TRZ Upper control arm
TRZ pan hard bar with rod ends
TRZ anti roll bar with axle tabs
QA1 Double adjustable rear shocks
Cobra jet springs front and rear
Fore precision fuel rails
80# injectors
Spec ST trim clutch
Pro 5.0 Shifter
Rear seat delete
Battery relocation kit
Reisch performance 170* thermostat
M and H racing's "The Tank" overflow tanks
C&R rad
C&R heat exchanger
Lund Racing tune

I also have the 10% Innovators West lower pulley and a set of 160# low impedance injectors and a driver for them since the car was going to get a built motor along with an E-85 setup for well over 1200rwhp.

I also have pictures of every single part I bought when it arrived.

also wanted to post that the price is workable, a stock 08 goes for 35-39k so I think I'm in a range for a quick sale, my loss is your gain, car has a lot of common mods done to it and is a great cheap way to making a radical car, a $2400 short block from ford racing and you can have over 1000rwhp that's all that's left really that I didn't change

No sir not Andy here but I can tell you it rips, its a low 10 second car with me as a driver in it and I'm no pro. Have two sets of wheels and tires for it as well. Taking offers for it... also comes with what factory parts I have if they don't sell before hand.

Yes sir, but its not quite what I'm looking for at this point which is why I wanna move to a c6z.. like I said the only thing I have holding me back from over 1000rwhp is 1. Skill level I'm not talented enough to handle it and 2. The short block, everything else is built to handle 1000rwhp. If you wanted to take it the step further as I planned I have the 10 point cage, the 160lb injectors and driver, and the lower pulley, all you'd need is a different fuel setup and you'd be making over 1000rwhp on e85 pump gas... its all there and ready to go.

Price is workable too, I really want a c6z pretty bad so I'm going to finish what mods I have left meaning the k member, new struts, have the vacuum provisions put in, I ordered the competition blower that's on the cobra jet which comes without the provisions because it runs manual brakes. The only other thing I need to work out is the wiper setup since this blower removes the passenger side wiper. So some small tweaks while I wait on a buyer.
