98SNAKE is right EZ.. You know I think the Cobra is a great car. Most of the mods are typical but the gears are a subjective thing and depends on what you plan on doing with the car. If you do plan on making it a track star, the 4.30's are a must. Some even go with 4.56's.

I prefer my 3.73's. Why? My car is pretty torquey compared to most Cobras and in my rural area, highway races are the norm. This makes my 3.73's perfect for battles with LS1's or anything else I run into. If you live in an area with many stoplights, the 4.30's are the way to go.

The only negative about the car is the cost of rebuilding, buying parts or working on this engine. It can make you wish the 5.0 was in it but not for long.
