Default Converting a 1995 5.0 in to a Cobra. Need info!

I want to know what parts I would need to convert my stock 1995 GT 5.0 engine into a Cobra engine? And would I need a different tranny?

you would be wasting your money trying to convert cobra specs.

just install a quality H/C/I set and youll make WAY more power

the cobra is a gt40 based motor.

but the gt40 parts are the weaker gt40 parts compared to motorsport aftermarket.

if you want ford stuff... do a gt40 tubular , and aluminum gt40 heads. the cobra cam is nothing special, trickflow makes a nice one. the rest of the induction will be ok but you might want better there too
