351 Screamer: Lidio Iacobelli is ready to make headlines again
Ok, admit it. At one time or another you've sat around dreaming about the ultimate Mustang you'd like to build. Heads, cam, blower, and nitrous included, of course. What seperates Mustang owners; however, is that some make their dream come true. Some owners have connections, some get sponsers, and most just spend lots of money to make it happen. Then once in a while, someone comes along that not only makes their dream happen, but helps to make ours happen as well. Lidio Iacobelli...

[01/28/2002] The 2003 Cobra will have 390hp!

By: -


Ford''s 2003 Cobra may be lacking its aggressive name, but that won''t keep it from making impressive horsepower numbers. Ford chose not to use the designator "Terminator" because they thought it sounded too violent. Ford was also concerned that they would have to pay royalties for the use of the name "Terminator", as they did with the Bullitt Mustang.

There was much speculation that the 2003 Cobra would use a different motor, and that it would come with a supercharger. Unfortunately, it appears that Ford will still be using the 4.6L 4V Cobra engine, however it will be paired with an Eaton Generation IV SuperCharger. The Eaton blower should give the 4.6L engine the low end torque its been lacking since 1996 and bump Ford''s new engine combo to 390hp. It appears that Ford will be using a T56, six-speed manual transmission to get the Cobra''s power to the ground.

Ford is scheduled to officially release the 2003 Mustang Cobra''s final specifications at the Chicago Auto Show on February 6th 2002.
