Money is tight right now but what would I be able to get for my Saleen motor with the supercharger? Mileage 19,500.
I also need to consider labor for swapping out the engines. Any thoughts what that might be?
I would need to find out what parts are needed to make the Cobra motor fit the Saleen. I talked to someone and they told me wires need to be lengthened, not sure what else is involved.

Don't lengthen wires. It can be done but its not the same. Do it right the first time. You will need a 4 valve computer and wiring harness.
You would probably get more money if you sold the blower and motor separately. A low mile PI 4.6 longblock could probably fetch about 2k without too much effort. The blower $1500-$2000.

Thanks everyone for the advice. I've decided to go for the 32V set up in my Saleen, however I've lost out on the one that was listed here for $5K as well as the one in CA.
If I could find a good deal on the motor and blower I will go through with it. Please let me know if you know of one for sale locally here in AZ with low miles.
Thanks again!

just keep checking the various stang sites and craigslist in the bigger nearby cities like SD, LA...
I did this swap on my Saleen about a year ago.
Thanks and I will keep and eye out. There were three that I knew of and they are all sold.
