[QUOTE="93Cobra#2771, post: 3276666, member: 4599"] Plus, you have to look for the bang for the buck factor. You got high flow (for the time) heads, intake, roller rockers, plus 24# injectors. Back in the day, a decent set of heads (there weren't that many around at the time) would run you $1400, plus an easy 600 for a ported TRUCK intake. Don't forget the rear disk brake conversion which would run you 600+. My buddy, who bought his car new, faced the same issue - get a coupe and mod it, or get a car with factory Mods. He chose the latter. The cobra was simply a better platform to start from with mods, as it already had the bigger tb/MAF/injectors/intake, etc. And, the ride in these cars is worlds different than an LX/GT - not nearly as rough and more "refined".
