Ok I thought I had made up my mind on swapping in a 03 cobra drivetrain, but I am having some second thoughts. I'd like to know what you guys think because i could go either way at this point.
Here's my two choices:
1. Swap in 17,000 mile or new 03 cobra engine. Upgrade t45 or swap to t56. Go back to stock 3.27 gear. Sell Naz ported heads, cams, fr500. Run eaton for time being maybe eventually run whipple/KB.
2. MP built 324ci aluminum shortblock. Run current ported heads and more aggressive set of cams. Run ported or ported/shortend mach/cobra intake.
Both options sound very appealing to me and the cost difference isn't enough to sway me on way or the other. I have driven my dad's stock 04 cobra and loved the power, but i also think about what my motor would been like with 40 more cubes, more aggressive cams, and higher compression.
All comments and suggestions are welcome!
