Geez thats pretty expensive?

 

[64comet]

Yea that has been on my watch list since the auction started just to see how much it would go for. Would rather spend money on the real engine, but cool none the less.

 

[CobraBob]

Wow! That is awesome. A bit expensive, but it should hold it's value over time since only 1,000 were made and it's so exclusive.

This could be just the thing for the car show junkie who always gets asked a ton of questions about the motor. Just whip that sucker out and do a show and tell! LOL!

 

[o3SnakeBite]

Nice but pricey.. I rather port my blower, which may actually end up being cheaper!

 

[Blk98Cobra]

Yea those are really nice. My dad was gonna get me a 2001 cobra model engine just like that but I declinded since I don't have an 01 and also because Id rather have the $$$

Yes but after you put it on the car you can't set it on your nightstand and sleep next to it. Anyway I prefer to have both.

I'll put the money toward a DFX clutch which I'm sure I'll need soon.

 

[Oh Three Cobra]

yea thats alot of money for that

 

[stangd1909]

That thing is pretty cool!! Alot of money though....but considering theres only 1000 of them.....

 

[Bluedot_26]

it needs the LDC mod

Nice model though ...

 

[black10th vert]

I got a good deal on mine but after seeing in person it's worth that much. It has a crank that goes through the clutch and the engine turns over showing the valves moving and the chains turning the cams and the rotor turning in the blower. I really like how it has drain plugs in the pan and the blower and you can look into the alt. and see all the copper windings along with the removable dipstick and the oil filter is so neat looking. Even the blades in the throttle body operate.

Wonder if Doug could make a pulley for it?

:lol: And all 4 idlers.

This is great, now we will have 2 engines to mod

Call and see if steiggy can do a port job.

do any of you know the history of this motor such as who made them and when were they available. what was the original price

 

[mosconiac]

Man, thats equally cool and expensive. Everytime I go into the local Ford service center, I drool over one of these Liberty Classics motors...

This would be cool too...

eBay has these for $25-30. These are NO COMPARISON to the one above though!

It appears to be made by ford. The box looks really nice, it has a red cobra on the box with the front end of the car on one side and the back of the car on the other side and the sides of the box shows each side of the car with the engine visible through the body in each picture. Then the lid of the box shows the engine on the stand with the only names on the box being the ford and svt logos. Doesn't say anything about who it was manufactured by. When I opened the box it had the 04 cobra spec card in it that the dealers give out.If anybody knows anything else about it chime in.
Also I'm looking for a 1:4 scale kenne bell and a set of cams. Cool how even the pressure plate has some spring to it. Everybody who has looked at it has found a new detail in it.

 

[P49Y-CY]

dayum that thing is nice!

anyone know the co that manufactured it?

 

[Captain Beyond]

That's awesome. I wonder if you can buy one at the local dealer parts dept.
