Cobra W/LT5 for sale
 

Ran across a guy who works for an major car manufacturer in Detroit area, he apparently has a Shelby Cobra replicar for sale with an LT-5 in it, looking for about $40K. I asked him to post up some pics and maybe even put it in the for sale section. Sounds like he is making 460hp or so in a very light weight car......nice. :saluting:

The lt5 is a close match to the 427 side oiler when it comes to HP

Looks like a beauty. So right, and yet so wrong at the same time.
A 60's style Grand Sport body wasn't available? That Ford 427 medallion takes the cake.

Drooling.....what Gen LT5 is that?

Re: Cobra W/LT5 for sale
 

I think its a 91 Engine if I remember right....its ported, etc puts down around 380-390 rwhp if I recall.

Re: Cobra W/LT5 for sale
 

11K miles on the car, if anyone interested in purchasing I can put you in touch with the seller

Re: Cobra W/LT5 for sale
 

Often thought if I totaled my car, the engine would go in a Factory Five supercar.
Is that Cobra a Factory Five?

Different and something you don't see every day.
