This issue was addressed and rectified by Ford over 2 years ago. They make more hp than the 98's. The reason for the initial car not making the advertised 320 was because of an intake mismatch at the last second. The 99s have a different intake and heads.
In reality, the 99 Cobra engine made closer to 340hp with the fix. God, how does this junk keep circulating? I swear it's like TFS TW heads have bad valve guides all over again. By the way, you can't compare a 98 Cobra engine to a 99 Cobra engine directly with data from a chassis dyno. The IRS on the 99 cars is less efficient so the results are skewed in favor of the 98. |
