Stock this engine is fuel injected, but I'm having trouble finding a stock 03/04 Cobra aluminum intake, injectors and plentum. I certainly want the performance, but would like to keep a nice look. I've seen many setups on regular mustangs and other 4.6L engines, but the intake is plastic and it the big throttle body style.

Krewton,
Your search for a 03-04 Cobra manifold etc will produce a part you can not use. The 03-04 Cobra's were all supercharged. Your compression ratio is somewhat low for a N/A engine and high for a supercharged version of the motor. You would not damage the motor in N/A form but you would detonate it in S/C form.
You're probably looking for the Mach I intake manifold and related paraphernalia. One of the better websites for ModMotors is Modular Fords (

With respect to the EFI you will be far ahead of the curve if you keep the OEM unit and use an aftermarket tuning product like the Sniper or SCT ProRacer products. Check out my gallery and you will see some of the stuff you may want to consider for your engine including a triple pump setup using Ford GT fuel pumps.
