    Garage Project.

    Now that the car can get out of its own way it was time to rebuild my trusty work bench. I built the previous one 6 years ago very cheap and quickly. It was beaten down and worked over. Time for an upgrade.

    Bought Me A New Work Horse

    Well the wifey and I have been debating the upgrade for a little bit now. The final straw in the favor of the upgrade was when we confirmed to a family trip to CO/UT with a travel trailer (rented). We had a very nicely optioned (loaded) 2013 F150 Scab FX4 with the 5.0. It tows around here as...

    Best Valve Spring Compressor For The Money

    I'm gathering parts to build my spare 5.0 with gt40 heads. I want to swap the springs to support the f cam and was wondering what spring compressor everyone used or what was my best bang for the buck? Harbor freight tool? Sears? Amazon? Just want to know what others are using.

    Progress Thread 92 Coupe Resurrection Thread

    So to start this thread off. Less than a year ago this car had a 6.0 LSX with a massive turbo and was notorious on hillbilly videos (or what ever that is) as well as some 1320 videos in street racing action. A friend of mine had it and it was nasty. He parted out the combo and sold the car as...

    1996 Cobra-- Cranks but won't start

    As stated: 1996 Cobra, cranks, fired one time and sounded terrible for 1/2 a second. Then nothing. Just cranks.
