Glen, I thought about that, plenty of stroked options as well. The na coyote is good for around 430hp, bit of work can see them well north of that. A sb windsor is still probably similar money for that sort of HP and how streetable are they when you start upping the HP? Would like the wife to be able to drive it!

I'm not a ford guru but i think this was from recent Mustang option, like HSV but for Ford.
This would be a bit different from the also haves.

Dave, that is a serious piece of kit, whilst its nice to be different, after visiting the nationals the wifey thinks she would like to have a go around the track. A Supercharged 427, is prob 600++ HP and lots of torque, need to be gentle on the loud pedal me thinks, would be a lot of fun though.
Just got of the phone with VPW, $12.9k delivered for a coyote 435Hp, 363 windsor 495Hp long motor $16k, could do a bit to the coyote for 3k to get a few more ponies. 363 would need throttle bodies etc
Ford need to lift their game
Back to cobra kits, i know we are in a little bubble on this forum and i need to join up cccv and go to a meeting, but has anyone heard of a kit other than PACE being purchased in the past 6 months or so.
