Hey guys, Im new to this site. I found this 93 cobra that was sitting in a barn for 10 years. Had 45K original miles on it. Pulled the original engine to freshen up and finally decided to drop in a 347 stroker. I actually just finished getting it done and tuned/Dyno. Car put down 350rwhp, and 363 ft lbs of Torque at 5800 rpms. Ignition was cutting out. Used stock ignition. I have since installed a MSD 6AL-2 and it feels way stronger!! Engine Has AFR 165 heads, 1.7 rr, Trick Flow Stage 2 cam, Probe forged pistions. Scat Crank, Scat rods, Cometic Head gaskets, 42# injectors, Trick Flow Intake, 70mm TB, Full Bassani Long tube Exhaust. 3.73 gears. Built the engine for boost, so I haven't decided to go with a supercharger or turbo kit yet....

Welcome! Always nice to see another modded black.
Here's a good thread discussing superchargers, should you decide to go that route.

Welcome the site, do did you really pull the 45k engine to freshen it? You shouldn't have yo refreshen these engine till well after 100k .. if it even needs it.

Car had been sitting for 10 years without starting it up. Freshing up the engine seemed like a good idea at the time, but a 347 sounded even better.
I live in New Mexico. I live by Roswell, where the alien crash happened.

Can we get the last 6 of your VIN# so we can add it to the registry?
