Default 5.4 GT500 engine in a Cobra?

Does anyone here have a blown 5.4 (used in the GT500) in their Cobra?

I did a search, found some discussions, but could not find anyone that actually did it.

I understand that there is at least one that has been done in Australia.
Its in a SPF, and If I'm correct was done by CTC in Warragul, Australia by a guy named Keith.

Web site - www.cobtech.com.au
email - ctc@ctcqm.net.au
Cobra Handle - Keith 720

PS: No affiliation. Just admiration for his work.

Best regards,

Python vehicles in South Melbourne built one of their supercharged 4.6ltrs for Ferrari to give to an ex-driver...(!)

http://www.python.com.au/

There have been a couple of guys fit a 5.4 quad cam but we didn't get the GT500 down here - dont know of anyone having used that exact engine

5.4 quad cam from local falcon - from the gallery of letsbogie351

the 5.4 is a lot wider than the 4.6.

SPF is the only thing it will fit in. -- I would not do it.

---there are newer, better powerplants.

how about the new 5.0L with the GT350 blower setup.
