    Tweecer issues and questions: Please help!

    I finally got the car started the other night after over a year of it being off the road. The 347 is complete and cranks, fires and stutters somewhat. My problem is with getting started with the Tweecer RT. I cleaned the pins with a Qtip and alcohol, and even thought they did not look dirty, man...

    187 Ride or Die?? WTF is this ghetto crap?

    I just saw what may be proof of the accelerating decline of American society. Some new game idolizing the rap music culture is hitting the stores soon. From what I could see, its gang members or some crap riding around and shooting at each other from cars they (or myself for that matter) could...

    Is it possible to connect LED's to headlight dimmer?

    I have a few Autometer gauges in my car and have replaced the incandescent bulbs with blue LEDs (Autometer part# 3286). My question is can I wire these into the headlight dimmer knob and dim them just like incandescents, or do they need a constant voltage? Will they heat up or something if I do...

    SN95 aftermarket VC owners: help needed

    I have the mods listed in my sig, but with my Aeromotive fuel rails the intake will not clear. I added a 1/2" intake spacer, but I would like to get some new VC's to better clear my 1.6 rockers. Will a Trick Flow VC set fit and still have the oil fill clear the TB? I know if I use Fox VC's the...

    Polishing Cobra intake

    I need to know which attachments you guys used to get into the grooves and small nooks and crannies in the intake when polishing, such as the plaque area and the contoured grooves in between the runners. I have a good sheen on the accessible parts, but I'm having trouble getting into the hard to...

    New K, A arms, coilovers, CC plates

    I just bought a UPR K member front end kit with their A arms, and coilover kit, it arrived yesterday. We got ready to put the engine in and I just could not stand the nasty looking factory K and A arms, and I never half ass things, so I shelled out the cash for this setup. Pics later, I'm going...

    2005 Kentucky Derby

    Well, another Derby has come and gone here in Louisville. This year was a record crowd of 107,000 or so, 5000 more than the largest crowd ever. The weather was beautiful, in the 80's and sunny. My business partner came up with some all access passes for us, which enabed us to go anywhere...

    2" drop spindles for 95 Cobra

    I have an opportunity to snag a brand new never installed Granatelli tubular K member, tubular A arms, and 2" drop spindles for less than what the A arms themselves cost. The A arms are for a 79-93 but I'm hoping Granatelli's will exchange them for 94-04's. My question is whether the drop...

    Well guys. The moment of truth is almost here. I have the Tweecer RT and CalEdit and CalCon installed, I plan on doing my first tweec's this weekend, maybe Friday if I can find time. The motor is brand new (see sig or my garage for details) and needs to be broken in first. I have a ton of...

    Crazy Chick Stories

    Okay. Time to make things interesting (I hope). Post up your stories, sagas, and tales of woe from crazy insane and/or psychotic chicks you have run across. GF, wives, ex's, friends whatever. Heres mine: I met this chick after a funeral for a mutual friend (who had warned me about her before...

    Am I sick, or what?

    I have been having trouble focusing on anything lately, because all I can really think about with any semblance of enthusiasm is my 347 going in my Cobra. I'm getting it all together starting Thursday. My friend and I will be working Thursday Friday and all weekend until she's complete. I just...

    Anyone have or seen one of these?

    Its an Autometer gauge that is a performance meter much like the GTechs and Passports. Here's a link to Summit's site: http://store.summitracing.com/default.asp?Ntt=atm+4380&Ntk=KeywordSearch&DDS=1&searchinresults=false&N=0&target=egnsearch.asp And a pic:

    Which plugs for a 347 with Victor Jr.s?

    I am replacing my plugs before I drop the new 347 in the car. Which plugs should I go with since I have Victor Jr. aluminum heads? I thought maybe it would be different than the stock Cobra plugs. An Autolite part # would be great, if you guys can help. BTW I did a thread search and had no luck...

    ATF oil in T5? LOOK!!

    I was searching the forums looking for a good how-to on engine bay cleanup (wire relocating, battery relocated etc.) and saw a link to moderndriveline.com and their T5 torque/gearing specs page. They also have a section on T5 history. Pretty interesting. :nice: What really caught my...

    5th gear syncro going bad?

    My transmission sometimes grinds when going into 5th gear above 4000 rpm. It only happens sometimes and only when under power. :mad: :bang: I have not had a chance to pull the Pro 5.0 shifter to check the stops, because I am replacing it with an MGW next week, and I am going to drain and...
