Any interest in 03 cobra short block

[whitetrash]

Has 1 spun rod bearing. I'm going to do a teksid block stoker so have no use for it.

[shumpertdavid]

how much?

[whitetrash]

Not sure really. What do you think it's worth?

$200 and some skittles...

[ktm300hater]

id be interested. id do 250 and a bag of skittles. but seriously, im interested

I usually see the connecting rods go for ~$300, pistons ~$300, and the crank ~$250.... on other sites but since you asked the question here you'd be lucky to get $250 for all of it.


Personally I would want somewhere around a grand for it

With a spun bearing?

Pistons are not desirable IMO, 8.5:1 gross.

Rods are good but since it spun a bearing the crank may need some work, it's just an 8 bolt f150 crank.

200-300 because of the rods. Other then that its not too desirable. IMO

Uhhhhhhh. You do realize that engine is designed for boost, right?

I think your a bit outside your knowledge zone here

I sold a Teksid long block with 200,000 miles on it a while back for $300. It was out of a Mark VIII and was running very well when the car was parted out. I would think that your Cobra engine would be worth more than the Mark engine.

It's a gamble any way.you look at it. The cast modular blocks, from what I've found, are pretty well the same whether 03-04 cobra or 2 valve. They are really stout and will handle over 1000 HP with supporting parts. The crank will need to be machined at minimum and could possibly be beyond what would be desirable for boost/high HP numbers and could have possibly been bent when the bearing crapped out. The rod or rods with damaged bearings may not be machinable if it made the journal end out of round (my experience with 1 of my mmr900 series when I spun a bearing. The pistons would be fine as long as the block doesn't need boring or they are damaged in anyway. Great start for a build project or parts no matter how you look at it.

Put the bottle down.

^^^^^^^ He'll understand if he moves over to the boost side of the world with anything running on 93 octane that doesn't have the cylinder head designs like the new coyotes and there programming. 10:1, 18 psi, 93 octane, and pushrod cylinder head tech wouldn't be friendly with any kind of decent timing added in.

i think its machinable. there are no deep gouges in it. more like small waves. it really looks like the bearing absorbed most of the damage
