This is my 97 SVT Cobra. I got this cherry in March of 2003 in dire need of some TLC. She had faded paint, the emblems were either missing or nasty looking, and the headlights were opaque with yellowness. I took on the charity case and now the car is in wonderful shape. She is my baby and I plan to have her for a long time to come.
And a look inside...
And under the hood...
I am adding some long tube headers and a fenderwell cold air induction soon, to complement my offroad h-pipe and Flowmaster 40 series mufflers. I also have a Steeda Tri-axe shifer and 3.73 gears. I will top everything off with a custom tune at my shop!
I have only been to the 1/4 one time in the car, but I practically live at the 1/8th. The best run to date in the 1/4 is a 13.71 at 104 with a 8.922 at 81 mph 1/8th, which was also on these incredibly bald tires...
...but my record in the 1/8th mile is 8.82 at 81 at a different track so I know the car has more potential! After my car is tuned and I have good tires I am fully expecting low 13s.
