Still have my eyes peeled for a Fox LX hatch to turn into a drag car.

I'm extremely impressed with the 3v motor so far. A friend has a '05 GT with a big
blower on it and it made just under 800rwhp. It has the usual forged internals, ported
heads, full exhaust, etc...but that's damned impressive from a 281cid motor. That's
on a pump gas tune too. It's on the bottle, but they never sprayed it.

Yeah 800 rwhp is amazing for a 281 motor. What kind of blower does he have on it?

As much as the performance of the 03/04s Cobras makes me I'd love to have a 99/01. I just think the lines flow better (yeah, Im in the minority...but I dont care).

I'd love to have one with some twins, solid axle and 6 speed. Nothing too insane in the power department, just a really stout street car.

But Im with some of the other people right now. Ive gotta finish school and pay for other **** right now to afford something else. That and I think a new truck will be on ordered before another performance car.

Well I wasnt looking for one, but a week after I sold my Z06 and started saving for a C6 Z06, My uncle called me and said that he had surgery on his leg and couldnt drive stick no more and that he had a suprise for me. So when i got to his house, he threw me the keys to his 04 Cobra, and said its yours man. I was in total shock. First thing i did was pm unit213 and told him everything and told him i wanted it to be a daily driver but with 500whp, and he told me what to do and pretty soon i should have it done. BTW still going to get C6 Z06 also.

I'm ready to pull the trigger on an '05 or '06 GT Vert. I just want to find a decent deal.
