I love the cobra-jets I had a 69 Mach 1 428 C-J-shaker but with a C-6 Auto. That was great with 375 HP stock back in the day.

 

I wonder how many will be available

 

From what I read only 50 Cobra Jets will be available.

 

That's actual Cobra Jet drag cars, which are just insanely fast. I think you'll be able to buy the engine itself too. And its got a whole lot more than the "375hp" Ford very conservatively rated the 428 at.

 

Yes alot more then the old 428. I think I read they are well over 500++hp & running in the 9s at 150mph

 

Vehicle Specs
Base Price $91,900
Engine 5.4-liter supercharged V-8
Horsepower 430 hp (base), 475 hp (with Whipple supercharger)
Torque Not available
Transmission 3-speed automatic (estimated)
0–60 mph Not available
Top Speed Not available
Weight 3,200 lb (estimated)
Length 188 inches (estimated)
Tires Racing Slicks

I think Ford might be telling a bit of a white lie here with those horsepower ratings.

 

go figure eh and I wonder what they cost just the motor of coarse

 

I read elsewhere that they are based off the GT500's Aluminum 5.4L and that is a 550hp engine, so in theory the 430hp n/a motor seems legit. But the supercharged engine seems a bit sandbagged at 475hp.

 

I think you are probably correct

 

To clarify, I wonder what the MOTOR would cost a fella?
