1994 Mustang SVT Cobra

Well, it finally happened.  I came across a 1994 SVT Cobra that was worth buying.  It is now in the garage undergoing some upgrades and maintenance.  It already had some tasteful upgrades, but some were not really done correctly.  I've created a trello board to track the work on the 94 Cobra.  If you're not familiar with Trello, check it out, it is a fantastic organizational tool. 

To start with:
The suspension is stock. 
The brakes have been upgraded to cross drilled and slotted.
Engine has aluminum heads and a cam.
Stock T5 trans, with king cobra clutch
Rear has 3.73 gears in it, but I don't think that anything else has been done to it. 
30 lb injectors and mass air calibrated for 30s.  T4M0 ECU.

Other than the little things that need to be addressed, its a great starting point for a project car!  Here's a quick list of the upgrades that are going to happen over time.

Engine - dart SHP, about 460HP.  More details on this to come.
Trans - TKO500 with RAM HDX clutch.  will be upgraded to billet flywheel and powergrip with new motor
Rear - just built welded and braced 8.8 with TruTrac and strange 31 spline axles, 3.55 gears.
Suspension - tokico D-spec shocks struts, eibach pro kit springs with MM isolators.  UPR double adjustable upper control arms, maximum motorsport weight jacker lower control arms.  Subframe connectors, full length maximum motorsports powder coated.
Fuel system - new tank, quantum hanger with 450 pump, 80's, aeromotive rails and regulator, new feed / return lines.
Stereo system - two JL w6 10's with zapco power, new head unit. Mach system is already in place and sounds nice.
Exhaust - ceramic motorsport shorties and offroad H pipe pre-motor swap.  post will be BBK 1 3/4 primaries to 3 inch exhaust.
Tune with the quarterhorse
Various other things will be changed along the way.  Here's the trello board!
