Building reliable horsepower takes matched parts, proper octane fuel, and ignition to light the fire. The focus is normally on induction, camshaft, valvetrain, and exhaust—all selected for the displacement and desired rev range. Of all the components you’ll purchase, some will last thousands of miles or laps (at least you hope they will), while others are “wearable” items that get changed out regularly.

The year was 1971 when a young man from the north laid out $2,450 cash for his first performance car, a 1968 428 Cobra Jet Mustang GT that was just three years old. And while the car fulfilled his childhood dream, he never imagined he’d continue going wide open on drag strips all over North America more than 50 year later. Today, Don Fotti rules the street and strip with his Canadian Cobra Jet Mustang.

While it’s not uncommon to see a modified Mustang, it’s rare to see an engine-swapped 2003-04 SVT Cobra. Enthusiasts covet the powerful original DOHC 4.6 factory engine that was rated at 390 horsepower—but really made about 425 ponies. Along with the intercooler and supercharger, the engines came equipped with Manley steel rods and forged pistons, which encouraged owners to crank up the boost.
