The car has been in my family since around 2001.

It made 385/381 on the 6 lb pulley and 488/463 on a 125 shot at Vangs in Tulsa. Since then I had found that my exhaust valves had been leaking and had the heads gone through by Hatfield Racing Engines. Have not had the car on a dyno since but it feels stronger. Got cold before I could run it also. The car is tuned on the rich side and only at 8 degrees initial on the timing. So a good actual dyno tune will unlock some power. I also have a 9 and 11 lb pulley that will come with the car. Also a TON of receipts and some extra parts.

Car still has powersteering, A/C, and cruise. No heat, heater core is bad and it never driven in winter, so never bothered to fix it.

Here is a run down of the mods........

Motor: factory 302 shortblock, AFR 165
heads, ARP head studs with Fel Pro Perma Trq head gaskets, Lunati blower cam, FRPP GT-40 intake, Accufab 70mm T/B, C&L
76mm Mass Air meter



Transmission: Tremec 3550, FMS alumminum
driveshaft, SPEC stg 3 clutch, 4:10 gears



Power adders: Powerdyne supercharger
pullied @ 6 PSI and ZEX dry nitrous kit jetted for 125 shot



Fuel system: Lucas 38 LB injectors,
Walbro 255 LPH fuel pump, and kirban adjustable regulator



Exhaust: JBA shorty headers, off-road
h-pipe, flowmaster mufflers, stock tailpipes



Ignition: Mallory digital box, JBA wires,
MSD cap and rotor w/stock ford distributor




Suspension: front coil-over conversion
w/ koni red adjustable struts, koni rear shocks, FMS upper/lower rear control
arms, complete FMS M-2300-K Cobra brake 5 lug conversion, Maximum Motorsports
caster camber plates, Maximum Motorsports alumminum A-arms, Maximum Motorsports
sub-frame connectors



Wheels: For the street 17x9 FMS Cobra
R's w/ 275/40/17's at all four corners. For the strip Weld Pro-stars 15x3.5
in the front and 15x8 in the back with 28x10.5 E.T. Streets



Interior: Recaro front seats w/5 point
harnesses, Auto-meter "Phantom" monster-tach, 4-pt cage



Stereo: JVC cd player, MB Qaurtz mids
and highs, JL audio 10in powerwedge



Best ET's: 12.25 @ 112 only 6 lbs of boost (no nitrous)
and 11.49 @ 124 (125 shot)

I was originally want to sell or trade to get into an 03-04 Cobra but won't be able to swing the payments on one at this time. So with the cage I cannot take our 7 month old son with us to shows/cruises and be able to take one car. Still would like to get back into a 4-valve car though.
