I'd swap an Aviator motor into it.
But an LS swap is so much faster.I'd swap an Aviator motor into it.
the 2v's have a special place in my heart as well
I remember when the 99s first came out and all the anticipation. I vividly remember the first time I seen one and remember just how smooth the body lines were with the hood and all. It seemed like the yellow GTs were EVERYWHERE! I counted 9 of them at a red light once. Now they are all but gone I hadn't seen a yellow GT in years.

I would love to have a Mystic jellybean Cobra.I couldn't agree More, although I do like 96-98 Cobras.. they have just enough styling cues to make them appealing I think.. Except for @98 svt ..his car is more ugly than a Brown 71 Grande
Kinda Funny you mention Yellow GT, I have a buddies 99 Chrome Yellow GT at my place right now and it is one of only 2 that I have seen in YEARS. He actually wrecked the car at one point, but I helped convince to hang onto it and fix it I will have to post a pic.
The car is cheap enough for a project but nothing is cheap with mod engines. You might be looking at twice your stated budget to both fix it up (general maintenance) and make it fast and that is just for parts. Labor would be extra if you weren't doing all the work yourself. If you went with used parts you could do it cheaper but used parts are always a crapshoot.

She’s dirty now. Stock engine and transmission with a Vortech V2 TI and Treadstone intercooler. On the stock pulley it sees 10lbs of boost and makes 403rwhp. It needs new upholstery. It’s a fun car and I think I’m going to keep it.

If you spray a 2V you better pray. The plastic manifold will become a projectile.you can find a used vortech CHEAP ....I think my kit was $2200. Made a custom FMIC , then injectors and tune , DONE 400 whp no prob . Or just spray and pray with a 150 shot and have some fun
