is this motor worth 1100?

I always el oh el when I see a 5.0 listed as one out of a 93 cobra. Who would actually sell their long block out of a vehicle with a limited production run? I mean come on, you know it was probably from an explorer lol

More than likely with the GT40 intake...

Overextending the 2-3shift probably killed the transmission. Won't know how bad till you take it apart...

All the upgrades are sketch unless you know what you are looking at. $1100 is a joke...

GT40(p) Heads and intake came on 95-2001 Explorers and 93-95 Cobra's. Very easy to fake out a 95-96 Exploder motor to look like a Cobra.

Trust me when I say, I know

My first 'cars/trucks' were all 5.0 setups...man I missed how simple and fun they were. No power at all, but you could sit there off redline for ages smoking the tires off without any worry. I remember when we used to make special trips to the junkyard to scoop up Explorer top ends to resell on forums haha.
