Guys,
Need info on the difficulty on installing a 2004 cobra engine into a 67 mustang. Decided to not go with a big block mainly because of the gas prices these days. Or instead of a 2004 engine what would be a good idea to throw in. Nobody say a 5.0 please. I want something that will easily make 450 horses. Figured a blown cobra will do the trick.
How are you at custom fabrication? It's no easy task, but it can be done. You would problably need a doaner car for all of the wiring and sensors. Then you will have to fab motor mounts, exhaust headers, fuel delivery, etc,etc. There is alot to consider. But if your up to the task, my hat is off to you!!

Has everything you'll need. I was going to go with them for my Cougar, but I was paying $600 a month in gas feeding the big block.
The gas totally destroyed my mod budget.

Getting good at my metalwork. Been playing around with a project at work and mt father-in-law use to resto muscle cars so I figure any help I need can be easily obtained.

Found a parts kit in the latest NPD catalog that lets you notch the shock towers so you can easily put in any 4.6, 5.4, 428, or 429 big block into a classic mustang. About 200 bucks for the kit.

BadAss,
Yeah I have been. That car will be one of the best to ever come out of the restomod era in my opinion. However, since I found this kit in NPD I figured I would share the info with others about the potential to do this engine swap. Besides I couldn't just take a few days off of work to see it and ask all the questions I wanted to anyways. I live nowhere near him.
up............. anymore info guys? forgot to say, I don't want to use the mustang 2 suspension setup. I will be going with a Fatman's 94-04 suspension. and will be using RRS's shock tower notch kit for it..........
