The engine was replaced under Ford warranty. They had all the documents from ford. Some malfunction with the oil pump caused the engine to seize.

The King Cobra clutch gave me a wake up call when I test drove the cobra. Definitely not used to pushing that hard of a clutch. When I got back in my car to drive home, my foot just went straight to the floor on my stock clutch in my GT
