The Fox-body Ford Mustang went out with a bang in 1993 by introducing the SVT Cobra for just one year for this generation before an overhauled pony car arrived in 1994. Late Model Restoration got ahold of a great-looking, stock example, and put it on the dyno.
The SVT Cobra packed a tuned version of the 5.0-liter V8 with a factory rating of 235 horsepower (175 kilowatts) and 280 pound-feet (380 Newton-meters) of torque. The company used the Mustang GT’s 5.0-liter V8 as a starting point but added a variety of components to boost the performance. The engineers replaced the cylinder heads with higher flowing GT40 pieces. It also had different cams and a revised intake manifold. There was also an upgraded suspension and vented disc brakes at both ends. The only gearbox choice was a Borg-Warner T5 five-speed manual transmission.
