    302 swap into '90 240sx...

    Dude, you need to face facts you aren't going to see 300 to the wheels without some kind of adder. All the boring, rebuilding, and new cams in the world are not going to do any good if you are putting the stock heads and intake back on. You do know the stock 5.0 only puts down 190ish stock...

    96-98 Cobras

    There's plenty out there, it's just a matter of how deep you want to dig into your wallet.

    Anyone know any places that sell Evans coolant in Pierce/King county? I'd rather not pay shipping if somebody has it locally. thanks

    cant hold idle after novi install & injector swap

    How did you clear the codes? The neg battery cable should be disconnected for at least 15-20 minutes to make sure the comp is completely cleared out. After that hook it back up and see how/if it runs. If it's not the problem it won't have cost you much time and effort.

    Livewires plug gap claim?

    Well I started the install tonight, with only 1 minor snag. The livewires #5 plug wire's plug clamp is a little too shallow, not allowing it to sit flush with the cam cover without pressure on it. I don't think this will be a problem once the plastic cover is bolted back on, but we'll see. I...

    Storing a car outside: How to save the brakes elegantly.

    Why not just get some good zinc washed rotors and be done with it. I've had some on for a year of DD and not a speck of rust anywhere. None on the edges, wheel mounting face, nothing.

    Hurricane series engine - still a go?!

    If goes into production it needs to go in the F150 too. Ford needs to start leading the pack instead of playing catch up in the hp/tq area.

    Livewires plug gap claim?

    A quick code scan at Schucks revealed I have had 3 cylinders misfiring at one point or another. I was going to hold off on the tuneup until 50K miles but it looks like the Cobra needs plugs and wires NOW. I have the plugs already and Livewires coil packs and plug wires on order. I am a little...

    Mac Longtubes on a Cobra???

    I tried MAC one time, and never again. I put a MAC catback on a 97 GT and within a year the tips were rusted out. And mind you this was in Texas, so the weather was ideal. When I finally scrapped the POS kit, I tapped on the mufflers and a pile of rust literally fell out of the pipes. MAC...

    forever asked question

    The shortest/easiest way to 13" brakes is to just suck it up and go 5-lug. Aside from 5 lugs being stonger, your wheel choices are limitless compared to 4 lug. If you are going for the sleeper look I think they make 5 lug ponies that would look just like the 4 luggers with the center cap on. The...

    Nice cleaning job. A casual observer would never know those little b@stards were ever in there.

    How many miles have you got off your stock Fox clutch?

    kelly blue book Vs regional prices...

    LOL, KBB is the biggest lowballer ever. That's why most dealers use it. They say my good condition 96 Cobra w/ 43,000 miles is only worth $9,000 :lol: (ppv) . I saw a 99 the other day with similar mileage for sale w/ asking price of $16,900:eek:. They prolly won't get it but I bet they get at...

    anyone buy the repo quarter windows yet?

    I will be ordering mine from here: http://www.foxmustangrestoration.com/?p=vp&id=313 as one of my planned winter projects. My rotten window trim is distracting from what is otherwise a decent looking car.
