i can get everything pretty easy but the tranny and gauge cluster might be a bit tricky. reason for this is there is a 03 cobra svt engine with everything for sale for $1850. it just need put back together. and the guy said it had 2k on it before he pulled it.

Yes it will be find.A member of our local club put a termi crate engine in his wifes '98 Cobra with the stock 5 speed still behind it.No issues yet.
But i'm sure eventually you will want to change the 5 speed out,as the stocker does not have the torque specs to back it of for years of fun .
