The car has approx 10,500 miles on it and has a show quality paint job. All of the drivetrain components/modifications listed above have less than 3,500 miles on them. The turbos have been on the car for approx 8,000 miles. The car makes around 540 rwhp and 625 rwtq at 10 psi. The present combo would probably make 800 rwhp with larger injectors and a retune – the Tweecer makes tuning fairly easy.

Yes, I have dyno charts that I can fax if wanted.

The interior is standard Factory Five with Stewart-Warner gauges and Autometer boost gauge.
The car is very fast when the boost comes on, but very driveable when just cruising around. It idles like a stock motored car and is a good deal quieter due to the turbos, as they actually muffle the exhaust noise. The larger displacement of the stroker motor gives good low rpm off-boost torque for everyday driving. The car weighs around 2,200 lbs. Serious inquiries only.

No Joy Rides.

Mike -that is one of the nicest FFR's I've seen yet. Did you consider a supercharger when you planned this build, or did you have your heart set on turbos since day one?? when I eventually get my kit-I would like to add a supercharger to my 302, but probably not right away.

( I'm 99.9% sold on the FFR kit-I bought the build manual, and plan on attending the build school in Mich. when the time comes)

I hate to see you sell the FFR as it is one of the neetest cobras I have ever seen. I would love to see that car on a real road course like Roebling road with race slicks to see what it can do.

For any potential buyers the asking price is well worth it as Mike has used top notch parts in building the car and you cannot build one like it for anything close to the asking price. I have seen this car several times on the short road course at Gainesville and it is very very fast. I don't think a stroker big block will hang with it on a road course or drag strip.

I have seen it break the tires loose at speed and they were drag radials. I did see it put out over 512HP at the rear wheels before Mike got it dialed in. On the same day the closest cars to it was a Supercharged Cobra Mustang with custom exhaust (404rwhp) and a Ford Lightning with around 375rwhp.

I wish I had the money and I would buy it.

Mike good luck.

Bob,

I started with a stock 302 and slowly but surely got to where I am now.

Ruble - Thanks for the compliments. By the way the car is sold.

Mike
Does that mean you will not have a Cobra or are you planning on building another?
