[Dark_5.0]

The 96-01 cobras weigh 3400 lbs. The 99-01's make 320HP and 317TQ. The 4.6 cobra's rev to 7,000rpm's.

Do yourself a favor and stick with your stock GT rear end. Keeping your stock rear will really cut down on cost.

The 32V 4.6 is a very smooth running engine compared to a 5.0. The 2 engines are totaly different, the 5.0 has tons of low end power and the 32V4.6 really comes alive in the 5000-6800 RPM range.

With the money you would save using your stock rear you would have a good chunk of cash to put towards a supercharger. 4.6's with forced induction make gobs of power.

Not to mention that the IRS rear end weighs 70 lbs more than a GT rear end.
