If you are talking about the Canadian built Cobra and the US GT the name is the only difference. I don’t remember the exact details but someone other than Ford owned the rights to the GT name in Canada so Ford called the GT a Cobra to get around this. They are not SVT’s or even related any more than a GT is.

93 cobra had different tail lights, rear spoiler, rear mumber, front and side extensions have no scoops, front grill and different wheels. Tranny is better plus gt-40 heads and cobra intake. I think it has 1.7RR and a different cam, also 24# injectors with a 70mm mas air and X3Z computer
