1988 Ford Mustang GT - Favorite Fake

Since the '93 Cobra is Adam's favorite Mustang, the GT provided the perfect platform from which to emulate the venomous one. Combining a Cobra R hood with a '93 Cobra wing, grille insert, rear bumper, and front spats from Cervini's, along with actual '93 Cobra side skirts, Adam built one of the nicer fake Cobras we've run across. Ford Racing Performance Parts '99 Cobra wheels help differentiate Adam's fake from other wannabes. Since '93 Cobras weren't available in white, the car won't fool anyone-but they'll have to catch Adam to tell him so. With quarter-mile times in the 11.40s, that may be a difficult task for all but a select few of his fellow SuperStallions of the Net AOD buddies.

Resident Superstallions engine guru Lane Palmer, of Fastlane Racing, put Adam's engine together between stints of working on his own car and trying to keep Mike Romano's Faleen (fake Saleen) on the road. Lane utilized Adam's 0.030-over stock block and stuffed it with a D.S.S.-prepped stock crank, stock balanced rods, and D.S.S. 0.030-over pistons for a final blower-friendly compression ratio of 9.7:1. Prior to installation, Adam sent his Edelbrock Performer 6037 heads and Cobra intake to BSD Racing for a little cleaning. Valvetrain actuations are provided by an Anderson Ford Motorsport B3 camshaft, while the big boost in power comes from a Vortech S-Trim supercharger with a 3.33 pulley and an Anderson Ford Motorsport Power Pipe. Even through the Art Carr AOD, Adam's Fobra makes 416 hp and 436 lb-ft of torque to the wheels with the help of Mustang Magic's tuning prowess and the tuneability of Autologic chips.
