    Detailing Engine

    The 99+ Cobra's have Coil Over Plugs (COP's). This is all hidden under the cover that sits on top of the valve covers. For us, we don't have to worry about covering anything really. Simple Green works fine if you just need a quick cleaning of the engine...if you have heavy grime, yes, get a...

    Cobra question

    With that kind of money, and doing it slowly...go with gears then exhaust, then the shifter. 4.10 gears or 4.30. You will also need a chip to recalibrate the speedometer since that will be off. I would go with 4.30's. Exhaust...an off road pipe has no catalatic converters on it so it...

    Cobra question

    Ditto...and NICE gift for him. I would agree with the above post: Steeda pulleys at the website listed above. Good for about 8-10 HP at the motor. Steeda tri-ax pulley. Same website as above, about $179 or so I believe. Just makes shifting the car fast much safer and feels better overall...

    Opinions on the 99/01 kenne bell

    All these kits are good...Voretech, ProCharger, KB....it's about what you want out of the kit as they provide different benefits. $6800 is just too steep for a blower though. Like others have said, for that cost you might as well just get a turbo.

    Will any 4.6l alternator work for 99 Cobra

    I'm pretty sure it's any alternator, but you may want to call the Ford Service department to make sure.

    Eaton 03 S/C on a 99???

    Good question....either one I guess. :shrug: I have FlowMasters. Buddy has Magnaflows. Two different sounds completely. Nascar vs. musclecar IMO. Flowmasters are musclecar :nice: Now that you asked that question, I changed my signature :D

    '01 cobra forged internals shopping

    There are others much better suited for these questions.....but I haven't heard of anyone running dished pistons. Also, the forged crank is fine...it's just the rods and pistons you need to address. Others will chime in..... :nice:

    Eaton 03 S/C on a 99???

    By the time you piece this together, you would be better off buying on 03 Cobra. Someone tried this before and it was a long learning process. KB is releasing their kit tomorrow basically. Check them out.

    Lookin for a roots...

    Look back at KB's website on Friday...that is the day they will be adding the pricing, information, and order sheet for the 99-01 KB kit. There was a thread at www.svtperformance.com explaining this. There are 20 people that put down deposits, so they are the first to get their kits.

    What will 3.73s do for my '01?

    I have 4.30's in my s/c'd 99. A few things to consider though: 1. What tires will you be running? Street tires went up in smoke through 4th gear for me. Nitto's did good, but couldn't hold 1st gear with my old 4.10 gears. I now have BFG DR's and they keep the power planted in every...

    What am i running after swap 1/4 mile???

    Interesting. Was just curious if I was missing something. I ran 13.4-13.7's while n/a with miscellanious mods along the way. 4.10 gears, IRS and both street and Nitto drags during different track days.

    what springs to lower cobra?

    They don't have to be....I went almost a year before I determined that I was no longer happy with the stock shocks/struts. They weren't matched with the lowering springs. But you can wait if money is an issue. To do it again I would do it all at once though.

    What will 3.73s do for my '01?

    Ok, "nothing" is exaggerated. But, with no power adder it is going to be minimal. So why spend money on a minimal difference. :shrug: Drop in gas mileage...are you kidding me. 5th gear is now useable, you can drive around in a higher gear than before. My gas mileage stayed the same and I...

    What am i running after swap 1/4 mile???

    Mid 13's....13.2 or so if you are a good driver with the Nitto drags. Just my guess though. You listed MSD coils and wires....on a 99 4V?

    What will 3.73s do for my '01?

    3.73's..what will they do? They will cost you over $500 to install them and you will notice nothing. 4.10's are not for the track...not at all. 4.10's are a fun street gear. 4.56's would be a track gear for your Cobra. Go with 4.10's and you will never regret it...except that maybe you...

    The way power is made!

    Thanks for the offer Doogz, but I was hoping for a 27x10.5x15, I need a wide tire, and a little taller to take out some of the gearing since I now have 4.30 gears. We'll see.

    First Time Running in the 1/4. Very happy with the times.

    Did you just drop the clutch on the 3K launch? Asking cause I will be going soon and this will the first time at the track with ET Streets and a solid axle.

    The way power is made!

    Soon!. Trying to plan a date to make it down to Milan Dragway. Stay tuned. Oh, I need to see if my friends 27x10.5x15's Hoosiers will clear my rear brakes or not. Those will make a difference :nice:
