Stock 03-04 engine horse power limit.
I am tossing around the idea of either getting an 03-04 cobra or throwing a forged shortblock in my 06gt along with a whipple. Whats the stock max for a 03-04 cobra within reason. Within reason meaning the engine is not just running dyno pulls for numbers but actually driven for years to come without the engine blowing up.

I thought about this question tonight while i was at work.
The car is a 03 black vert with only 9k miles on it. I went to look at the car and it does have long tubes, catted x and flows. It's lowered and it has a different pulley.
My main concerns are the fact that the exhaust is about 2 inches off the ground due to the lowered state of the car. But my main question is, can a smaller pulley cause any damage to the engine? It has the stock blower. I want to replace it with a whipple so i am not as worried about the blower as i am the engine. I would assume making the blower spin faster with a smaller pulley would cause premature wear but as i said, my main concern is the engine.

just ask them if it comes with a tuner or a chip...maybe try to get ahold of the previous owner...but the most damage your gonna do with a eaton is to the eaton not the engine...it sounds like you have a very nice car on your hands!! just dont hit bumps fast and it wont scrap but somewhere somehow your gonna do it lol if you dont like the ride height get another spring thats not as agressive but youll be ok!!
