FS: 1999 Cobra w/402 LS2/3 track day car Year: 1999
Make: Ford
Model: Mustang
Price: $14500
Mileage: 34000
Private or Dealer Listing: Private Listing
Location (State): MI
Color: Black
Transmission: Manual
Drivetrain: Rear Wheel Drive
What the car is:
- Fast, actually stupid fast.
- Very reliable. While some may be “wrenching” in the paddock I‘m generally relaxing between sessions.
- I feel the car is at it’s max performance, the next step is aero, huge tires and I am not going there.
- Not a show car.
- Not a cruiser. With no A/C it can get hot. It does retain the factory vent fan.
- No airbags and no factory seat belts thus no factory crash performance. You make your own decisions here…
- I don’t drive it on the street because the tags are expired. I trailer the car to all events.
Suspension
- Full Maximum Motorsport front coil-over/k-member suspension/bumpsteer kit/camber plates
- 350lbs springs/2003 Cobra struts
- 2000 Cobra R Brembo 4 piston retrofit in front
- Full Tilt Boogie Racing IRS upgrade (Delring everywhere)
- MM 550lbs coil over springs/2003 Cobra shocks in the back
- Full Tilt Boogie Racing 13” rear brake upgrade, new cross axis joints and Kenny Brown bumpsteer kit
- Hawk Blue pads all around
- MM Sub-frame connectors
- The car sits approximately 1 inch below factory ride height
Interior/exterior
- Recaro Sport seats
- Schroth Harness
- 6 point roll bar
- Relocated battery
- No carpeting, no a/c but venting fan was retained
- Vented carbon fiber skin hood
- Fully boxed radiator (The car never overheats. Never.)
Powertrain/drivetrain
- New LS2 block with LS3 heads, 4” Callies forged crank, 402 cubic inches or 6.6L
- Ford EEC-V computer and sensors + SCT chip. Yes, I guess in theory, you could run diagnostics on the engine.
- 470rwhp, 440ft-lbs torque
- Runs on 93 octane
- ARE hybrid dry sump system, 3 gallon oil tank ( you only fill it with 6~7 quarts)
- C&R oil to water heat exchanger
- 6 speed 2003 Cobra T56 transmission with LS1 input shaft and Quick Time steel bellhousing. Completely rebuilt by Liberty Gears in Taylor, MI.
- Aluminum driveshaft with 1350 U-joints
- GKN upgraded half shafts
- 3.73 gears with Tru-Track differential and diff cooler with Tilton pump
- Side exhaust, 1 ¾” headers, ceramic coated
Engine:
Engine before installation:
Dyno sheet:
The dry sump uses a belt driven 2 stage scavenge pump and the factory oil pump for the pressure side. This system has been proven for many years in racing and I believe was used in an older race series many years ago as a way to circumvent some of the rules. The scavenge pump is mounted in the LS1 A/C location and runs on a very reliable serpentine belt with the factory A/C tensioner. So very little risk of a “thrown belt”.
Differential cooler
Weight:
The car weighs 3,211lbs with a half tank of gas.
W/o driver
W/Driver
Mileage: 34,000 miles
The title has been clear since 2002.
You can find all sorts of 1999~2001 Mustang GT and Cobras for less than 10k… and a lot of mileage on the odometer. But none will behave like this one on track. The car is modified but was not “butchered up”.
The car is located in Farmington, MI. I can deliver the car within a reasonable distance.

Extra pictures of the car:
Engine blueprinting
Primary set of 10th Anniversary wheels w/street tires
New 13” rear brakes
Front brakes with plenty of pad left
Dry sump oil tank inside front fender. You don’t even need to raise the car to change the oil. Slide a bucket under the fascia and undo the drain plug. Done.
Heat Exchanger
Rear suspension, new cross axis joints, coil-overs, larger half shafts
Original spare tire. Never used.
Passenger side exhaust. Helps to lower diff temps.
If you keep reading below you will see many miscellaneous items that are included with the car.

Other items included with the car: A “street friendly” full length Magnaflow exhaust. Both exhaust systems use V-bands and are no more than a 20 minute job to install.
Extra set of 10th Anniversary Anthracite wheels with Continental 275/40 R17 slicks. The tires are worn. No matching center caps.
The service manuals, Matthis’ book, the “Motor vehicle manufacturers specification” manual (difficult to find), the original window sticker and the original SVT certificate.
Most of the literature for the modifications and many of the invoices especially for the engine/trans
Original steering wheel (minus airbag)
Original Ford half shafts
The original hood
A set of zinc plated 11” rear rotors, new with pads
A set of Galfer street pads, new, for the Brembo front brakes
Halon fire extinguisher
I do not have the original seats, belts and carpeting.
