wouldn't that just tickle everyone's a $ $hole....

an engine swap for the SVT on the V6. i thought of that on the way to work when a big brother cobra pulled up next to me. i was thinking... how would he feel if a V6 spanked his Cobra.... could that happen a SVT engine on a 2000 V6 with a shift kit automatic transmission. nothing else done pure stock.

thats something id pay to see!!!

 

It would probably be easier to buy a cobra and put all the v-6 body features on it. I don't think the blower fits under a standard hood though.

Sleepers are always fun.

 

And its been done, so it must be a good idea!!

if i did that, i would keep stock rims and get better tires. then i would try and keep the hood as stock as i can. id keep ever other look on it stock. then show them whats under my hood!

 

That car is a mule!!

GT badging, Cobra engine, etc...

If I did that, I'd buy a Mark VIII engine which costs substantially cheaper, but it is practically the same engine (save intake manifold, and a few other relatively inexpensive fixes). Then I'd spend the rest on mods.

 

The only problem with that would be the rear end...its not built to handle any kind of power on the 6er...especially something like the 4v...its not even quadrashock or posi....the trans and rear end would be your weakest links..in fact i was just up at an F-Body shop today and the guy was talking about that on chevys...

 

The great thing about the M8 engine is its harness and computer. It only controls the engine and transmission (auto). It doesn't need to interface with the climate controls, instrument panel, and a host of other things that the Cobra's CPU does... It makes swaps easier in street rods and other cars that don't have or need that level in integration... Perfect for a Fox body swap!!!
