2003 Ford Cobra SVT
2003 Mustang SVT Cobra – “TERMINATOR”
Debuting in early 2002, the 2003 Cobra, codenamed “Terminator” by the SVT development crew, and quickly fell into common usage for the 2003/04 Cobra, came with a supercharged 4.6 L DOHC engine. Numerous improvements were made to the powertrain and driveline to handle the increase from the previous model year. A cast iron block was used instead of aluminum, with stronger internals, including forged Zolner pistons and Manley H-beam connecting rods that were modified with a wrist pin oiling hole by the SVT engine builders. These upgrades were critical in order to support the 8 psi (0.55 bar) of boost delivered from the stock Eaton M112 roots supercharger. Other improvements include the use of an aluminum flywheel connected to a Tremec T-56 six-speed transmission, 3.55:1 rear axle ratio and stronger 31 spline half shafts with revised upper and lower control arms. These modifications launched the Cobra from 0-60 mph in 4.5 seconds and the quarter mile in the high 12′s at over 110 mph (180 km/h). Some have gone as low as 12.4 seconds with a professional driver and good conditions in bone stock form.
This car in particular has been modified with the basic 03-04 Cobra bolt ons that produces 450 horsepower & 450 foot pounds of torque at the tires – professionally dyno tuned and stored at Performance Autosport here in Richmond VA .

This car is a blast to drive but I need a larger sedan for my work, otherwise I would
NEVER let it go. Production was not incredibly high on these cars to begin with
and you constantly see wrecked ones on forums for sale, so how many are truly
left? This car has a beautiful shine to the paint, is a dependable head turner ready
to drive anywhere you would like. The car is currently stored at PAS in Richmond
and can be seen during business hours there. Any questions please call Jimmy @
804-358-2505. The only trades I would consider would be a low mile 2006-09
Chrysler 300 SRT8. No motorcycles, hot rods or otherwise please.
