    Engine Ticking Sound

    Sounds like a sticking lifter then. Keep an ear out for it, to see if it gets worse.

    Whoa there! I didnt say anything about stupid? If anything, I'm calling myself old. No logic involved. Just different mindsets for different folks. I'm more interested in going fast in a straight line and big heavy wheels, although looking great, are counter productive. If you like it, do it...

    Engine Ticking Sound

    Did you maybe float a valve? Is it blowing smoke? That or a sticking lifter.

    But you love the look of big wheels and lowered cars even more and that's what you're going to do. Because you're young

    New 347 Estimated Rwhp?

    I estimate a banana cream pie. But it's all about how you put that banana cream pie in your mouth. You can have all the bcp you want but if you can't get it into your mouth what good is it?

    Hunting For A 93 Cobra. Need Some Help

    I'd almost be willing to bet the one that was originally a Florida car was a flood damage. Which could mean electrical gremlins. I'd try to track the original owner down if you can.

    Suspension Problems

    I just wound up hitting it with a hammer (carefully) to knock those clips back. I put the wheel on, tightened two lugs and still the same noise. So I tried it again, and it appears to be gone. I will have to go for a test drive to be sure. I will update the thread when I know for sure.

    Suspension Problems

    Okay, jacked up the car and was able to duplicate the sound, though much quieter. Pulled the wheel and spun the rotor and no noise. I cannot for the life of me figure out where the wheel is touching though.

    Suspension Problems

    Actually that was one of the first things I thought of. Ball joints are perfect. Bushings are worn but not terrible by any stretch. I think it truly is the alignment. I'm probably gonna Take it in this weekend and have them check it out.

    Suspension Problems

    Their was no carpet or rear seats in the car when I got it, so I can absolutely say for certain it's not the torque boxes.

    Suspension Problems

    Ooh just thought of one other thing I thought I should mention. Front passenger tire has a tick when going down the road. It doesn't do it all the time, I'm wondering if it's a wheel bearing?

    Suspension Problems

    It would be an easy problem if I knew anyone that had a fox around me. I have been trying to get a set of two anything off of Craigslist but haven't had any luck yet.

    Suspension Problems

    Thank u for all the sage advice! I have no idea how to check the alignment but if one will tell me I will get right on it and get back to you all. Torque boxes are perfect, one of the first things I looked at before buying the car. Front springs and shocks are brand new along with the bushings...
