03 Cobra (Black 10th Coupe, 2.8L KB Mammoth/Built Motor/T56/SRA) NEEDS HEAD GASKET
PRICE REDUCED/RELISTED needs passenger side head gasket.
ASKING $22K OBO as it sits on the 18x9/18x10 Black Chrome Saleens.
I'm selling my 10th Anniversary 03 Cobra with 45,XXX miles on the body (1500 miles on the new motor). Most of the parts on this car only have a few thousand miles on them since it has spent most of its life as a upper only car. The 2.8L Kenne Bell Mammoth Liquid Cooled supercharger has about 4k miles on it. The new motor and fuel system components only have 1500 miles on them. This is a extremely clean car with no expense spared. The car is still very streetable since it is not caged and still has its full interior, radio, A/C, heat, windshield wipers, power steering, etc.
The car made 720whp (93 octane/20psi (stock KB upper/2lb Metco ring)) on Radical's Dynojet when the KB was installed on the stock long block at 41K miles. The motor was then pulled by RPM in Delaware (see invoice below) and rebuilt by Mahler in Collingdale, PA. The car is currently tuned for E85 since I have two stations locally (the SCT Pro Racer Package/SCT Tuner allows for multiple tunes if you intend on running race gas instead and or wish to go back to 93 octane).
I listed the car for sale a few months ago after breaking in the new motor but ended up changing my mind and sold my other sets of wheels/tires instead of the car since I haven't had the time for the car the last two years. Long story short, I drove the car to work the other day to have my oil/filter changed so I could list the car for sale again. While on the life my mechanic noticed some coolant on the bottom of the engine. I gave him the okay to go ahead and diagnose it to figure out where the coolant was coming from hoping that it was a bad expansion tank cap, radiator hose or something I could fix myself. He pressure tested the coolant expansion tank (for the motor) and it gradually lost pressure. He found that the coolant leak was from passenger side head gasket. He let it idle after he changed the oil and topped it off with coolant at the crossover tube. The car never overheated when he let it idle while watching the water temp gauge so the head gasket must have went right before I got to the shop (go figure). I'm not in a position financially to have the it fixed and I don't have the time or knowledge to change a head gasket on my own. The only other mechanical issue is the e-brake cable needs to be reconnected. I didn't drive the car back home, I will be trailing it back to my house sometime next week when I have the time.
I'm sure that I'm forgetting a few parts since its a long list. Don't hesitate to email me if you have any questions or would like pictures of anything specific.
