Yea, I cant stand that shit. Whats the point in saying its a "Cobra Killer" if you have to put so much money in it to make it as fast as a big whipple/kb Cobra?
i could see if its the price of the car,mods,labor,paint work it could easily add to 50k
25k for the car
10k for the long block
5k for the blower setup
2k for the interior
4k for the tranny swap
2k for the built rearend
2k for the suspension
3k for paint
1200 for wheels and tires
gauges/shifter/rear bumper,a bunch of random shit easily 1k
obviously alot of that is alittle overpriced but with labor it should come out pretty close to that.alot of people cant afford a cobra in the beginning and eventually they just keep modding what they have and you end up with something like that

on youtube he said its 604rwhp
wow, you guys are rough
wow 53k invested?
i guess its possible...including price of car and he paid labor for all of it...which is a big chunk
so like i got my car for 15k...spent 10k or so so far and have 400rwhp...so 25k "invested"
give me another 15k and it could have 1000rwhp...10k to get 700rwhp probably...lol so i still dont see how he could spend 53k and only have 700rwhp...

Im not sure why he states it has 700hp if he goes on to say it was dynoed at 604hp....
I wouldn’t call it an investment.

so what if its a 2v or not that doesnt mean it cant make power. :nonono:
and what do you mean by that? Im pretty sure some 2vs hand some 4vs their asses to their owner on a plate...

I dont think it matters if its a 2v or 4v, 53k is a lot of money!!!
I remember this guy had posted his car for sale on this board about 9-12 months ago. If my memory serves me correct I think the asking price initially was about $22,000. It is a nice car as I've owned both a GT and a Cobra I would definitely want the Cobra. Less money, less mods, more power for the $. If he's trying to sell it again and asking for more that what he was he needs to be referred to a center that can assist in delusions of grandure.
hey johnnyscobra, if you look to the right of the video there is a URL box, just copy and paste that and it puts the video in the post. like this:

sounds like shit
All I'm saying is that if you're going to invest over $50,000 in a modular mustang, you would be a fool to start with a 2 valve, unless you're trying to prove something.
Yes, 2 valves CAN make awesome power, especially with a twin screw/shot. A lot of 2-valves out-do some four valve cars.
I was just thinking that this guy spent $50,000 on a 2-valve with 600rwhp when he could have just bought a 4v Cobra and TT'd it for all of maybe $40,000 and had WELL over 600rwhp.
Maybe part of that 53k is him paying ' sticker ' at the dealership lol....
