I don't think you could do it unless you were Ford Engine Development and had your own foundry!

would be real sweet to have one though

Quit shooting down his dream

what kind of V-10 is it then?
You would not need to have a 6" cowl if you lowered the engine in the chassis

The New Edge Boss 351 was built by taking a 4.6 DOHC block mold, grafting two more cylinders on it, then pouring a V 10 with short deck height and 351 cubic inches. 281/8= 35. 281 + 35 + 35 = 351. It had 2 computers and they ran the engine like they were running two 5 cylinder motors. Ford could have very easily built this motor and vehicle for the street. "New Edge" Boss 351 (here chevy, chevy, chevy).

Re: '93 and 94/95 Cobra Intakes

I like womever had the idea about the sn95 5.0 cobra. sell your mystic. you could probaly get a good number for it, it being rarer. I see where your coming from Scott, the work required to make it a collector, in your eyes is a lot..$250 a pint for BASF, starts adding up reeeel fast. But I don't agree w/ changing its entity.. its engine, the soul of the beast.... even if its not pristine condition, it still commands prestige as one of the rarer mustangs to come out of detroit.. don't be hatin the 4v. you have a collector car. an w/ it, comes all the glory..and headaches.

as far as the 94-95 cobra: its a lil more power than the GT, your still in a cobra so your not steppin down in any form.. and its a cheaper platform to start modding from..initially..parts wise at least.. alot of the susp stuff is the same from 94-98 so you could start to piece it together. from whatevers on the cobra right now, an then go from there: heads, intake, cam etc..

but my wild eyed artist side comes screamin out and the whole stroker 428 in a mystic jus sounds reeely frickin cool..
