the wrecked cobra was originally gonna be used for my second modular fox transplant...with work and family...not to mention my wife was using the coupe as her daily driver as well made it a little more difficult...the plan was to swap all the dash and interior from the 96 to the 91 as well as making the DLC OBD2 connector and make everything functional along with the ABS system/ airbags blah blah blah...
the 4 cylinder swap was a little more work than i expected...since basically everything had to be revamped or improved...from improving the rear end to fuel/brake lines to wiring everything up...but in the end...hey you cant beat paying for a non sportcar 4 cylinder insurance....like what 50bucks a month for insurance

the only problem i see with converting and my dad did it when he put a 427 in our 4 cylinder stang was the frame. i dyno'd at bsm. That was with a 125 wet shot, long tube headers, mid pipes, catback, upper intake, single blade throttle body, intake, 60lb injectors and a stage 4 ported eaton, 6lb lower pulley. I never had Naka tune mine
i just couldn't afford it. He charges 1k to tune Lightnings. I had an ots map, back and forth tweaking it with Diablo tuning + alot of data logs. The guy who bought my Lightning, has wrecked it once already, and i sold it with probably, only 350 to the wheels due to part out. The ecu was flashed just to performance 91 octane with pulley at 15lbs of boost. So maybe some people shouldn't drive stuff like that. Oh well
i was a paradise cruisers member and still am. I'm on there about once a week. I sold most of those parts on NLOC when i manned up and decided to sell. (ZEX nitrous with purge, ported eaton, and injectors) So i assume you know Chad and Rick and crew. Good people down there.
i had a 97 cobra w/ magna flow headers to the bumper, intake, msd coil ignition, upper intake and 3.73 gears. stolen

awe man!!!! we need some pics!!! i never got to see Nakaz 460 stang either when the mom used to drive it...only stories....
its funny when you said chad and rick combo...because i know both sets as well that both know each other... and one of the chad rick combos both raced fords and rick who works @ servco subaru as well ROFL then the other chad rick combo @ Paradise cruisers....
curious though...how exactly did they steal your 97 cobra w/ the PATS (passive anti theft system) system? tow truck?
