lol.
a 3rd correction was probably unecessary but to the O.P.
The way i would decide, is how your car looks/ what condition it is cosmeticly.
If your car is still clean as far as interior and exterior goes, i would drop alot of money into the motor/tranny/rearend/fuel system.
if it could use a little work or is beat you might be better off selling it & getting something newer.

i dont think u can get to much for a car with 200k on the clock even if it was in great shape. if the a/c works good maybe 1500 to 2000. i would put down 8k on a 04 cobra and then add a better clutch maybe a centerforce i had a spec 2 in my cobra and it had a very stiff clutch pedal i didnt like it,pulley 2.8,100mm idler,tune,cai,exhaust,o/r mid pipe and your will have 460rwhp to 500rwhp

tell me how mach1s and 03/04 cobras use the same heads but machs are 3v and cobras are 4v.

460rwhp to 500rwhp sounds damn good.

Like I said. MMR longblock, dressed with TF heads. I talked to MMR already>price quoted was 7k$ for said longblock, comp cams, 400rwhp, with a blower friendly compression so that i can add a KB later. Would you liek to see the emails? I didn't know it was possible, but considering MMR's status, Im going to take his word for it.
