SOME INTERESTING FACTS TO KNOW IF YOU ARE CONSIDERING BUYING A SVT COBRA- The factory horse power ratings for the SVT Cobra was actually over 255 horse power. For reasons unknown, Ford started using a "different way to measure" horse power in 1993. The cobra was underrated by at least 20 horse power. This is a confirmed fact that not a lot of people know of.

The SVT Cobra was a highly modified Mustang. Factory modifications are listed below.

CYLINDER HEADS — GT-40 "High Flow" Cast Iron heads were installed. They were milled for 62.5cc combustion chambers. Valves measure 1.84" (46.7mm) intake, and 1.54" (39.1mm) exhaust. The valves are actuated by Cobra-specific 1.7 ratio roller rockers, constructed of aluminum and produced for Ford by Crane Cams.

INTAKE MANIFOLD — The Cobra upper manifold was unique to the 1993 Cobra and had a 2.75" (70.0mm) diameter round throttle body opening, diverting air into (8) round staggered ports, each 1.64" (41.7mm) diameter. The lower manifold was identical to the GT-40 manifold used by Ford Racing; it redirects airflow to a rectangular port configuration as needed by the cylinder heads.
CAMSHAFT- The cam is of the hydraulic roller type. The Cobra cam has unique specifications of 0.479"/0.479" (12.2mm/12.2mm) intake/exhaust lift, (209°/209°) duration at 0.050" (1.27mm), and a lobe separation of 118.3°.

AIR/FUEL DELIVERY- The increased airflow and fuel consumption of the Cobra required these upgraded components: Larger 24lb/hr fuel injectors, 2.75" (70.0mm) MAF meter, 2.56" (65.0mm) throttle body, and matching EGR plate handle the increased breathing of the motor. A specially calibrated X3Z EEC-IV engine control unit runs the system.

ACCESSORIES- The crankshaft pulley diameter was decreased by 14% in order to under-drive the alternator, A/C, and smog pump, all to increase power. The water pump pulley also decreased in diameter by the same amount in order to preserve the ratio of pump speed, and thus coolant flow.

EXHAUST- To extract the maximum amount of power from the Cobra's powerplant, Ford engineers used tuned mufflers with lower restriction. While the factory headers and H-pipe remained the same, the tailpipes were similar to that of a Mustang LX 5.0L (Sport) model in that they had straight stainless steel tips.

DRIVETRAIN- With the increased engine output of the SVT Cobra, the Borg-Warner World Class T-5 transmission needed an internal upgrade, which allowed it to yield a higher torque capacity compared to the standard World Class T-5. This upgrade consisted of custom gearing 1–3 (which were reduced 10% and hardened), 4th/5th (just hardened) gear was the same as standard T-5s found in the LX/GTs. The holding capacity of the Cobra's clutch was increased by way of a higher clamping force pressure plate using the same 10 inch diameter as the GT/LX. The Cobra had rear disc brakes and directional 17 inch wheels.
