If everyone wants when I get home I will make a build thread.
I don't know how much interest there would be in a Turbo LS1 build. The car is getting my old turbo kit once I go through it and repair the seals.

I really appreciate it though!

I'm still very undecided, what I want to do is a lot of money away from being finished and I'm only 19 lol.

I'll keep it in mind for sure, just need to pay the car off first. Thanks though!

I love these cars, and especially if it was turbo. It would look sick with a nice set of black wheels. Hopefully you end up doing the journal, it be a good read for me.
In the end what made her buy this over a 03-04 cobra?

I'll end up doing a journal I guess if people want to see it.
Basically we were searching for an 03-04! However Cobra owners REFUSE to pay blue book for the cars. I'm not pay 3-4K over bluebook for a ANY mustang. Sorry LOL. It got stupid how arrogant some of them were. ANYWAY in the end she is happy with this and all those Cobras are still for sale.

I don't get it, the demand for those cars isn't there anymore with the GT500 available. Oh well, they passed on a serious buyer. But we did try.

I think there was, I mean at least for the people that could afford them, factory Supercharged isn't exactly something thats normal, especially with mustangs, they are always all motor.

LS1's will make anywhere from 290-330hp to the wheels stock. It really depends on the "freak" make up of the motor. I've seen um run as high as 14.0 and as low as 12.8 stock. Depends on the driver etc.

Well think about it. For years for Mustang owners had a slushbox 2V car that was hard to mod, hard to work on, and hard to make power with. The motors are like glass. They grenade around 380-400hp. So when a fordged, iron block, 32V, 4Cam, Supercharged, 6-Speed came out all the Ford Fan-Boi's went nuts LOL. There is a VERY loyal market for the Ford Mustang/Cobra. Problem is that these cars are only valuable to someone in th Ford community or someone willing to mod a car to race. NADA doesn't recognize modability. So what it's worth to the community isn't what it's worth to everyone else.

I'm not married to a badge (yeah I lean towards domestics) but I can pass up an overpriced car regaurdless of how it's thought of on the street and it's potential.
