+1. Since its carbed I would ask for the vin to see if it is a true 5.0 or a 4 cyl swap. If its a 4 cyl swap then it's way over priced. I'd say look around for a better deal. I've seen clean 93 cobra's sell for that much.

Yeah that seems kindof dumb to go to the trouble of all the other stuff just to put in a lesser intake/cam.

Even though the Emergency shut-off and keyless start are cool, he prolly could've used his $$$ more wisely.

If you really want this model then just ask him for more details and specially proof of his so-called improvements.

Otherwise, just go and search for another model, there are plenty of them at lower prices.

Ive talked him to $5500. Does that still sound high? He said hes ran it 3 times and it ran 12.20s. He said the bottom end is also fully forged.
