    Headers DONE!! K member IN!! (mostly)

    As long as the rotors come off easily and you have a can of breakfree for some stuck bolts.. I would guess probably 4-5 hours, you could definitely do it in a day's work with jack stands and hand tools.. If you lived closer I'd offer to help you out but that'd be a pretty decent drive for you.

    Headers DONE!! K member IN!! (mostly)

    Really the tubular K is a drop in the bucket.. just stick some wood on top of a jack and jack under the oil pan, support it while you loosen the motor mounts, then you can lift it up a couple inches to drop out the old one. Then theres like 4 bolts holding it on the car, and 2 bolts holding...

    Let the fun begin!!! *PICS*

    Yeah, it kinda all added up.. wanted to do K-mem, but figgured I'd wait for headers.. then had to do A-arms, coilovers, Tie rod ends, end links, CC plates, etc.. just figgured I'd do it all while the blower was off for a couple weeks. Plus it's rainy outside and the Cobra melts in the rain :D

    Let the fun begin!!! *PICS*

    Thanks for the replies... The K-member and A-arms are PA racing.. I'll report back on the fit, everything I've heard says its good stuff. The coilovers are MM. My wheels are just plain jane Cobras, yeah the backs are 10.5". The yellow one has 9" with 1" spacers out back.

    Oil in powerpipe, Vortech Cobra.. breathers or catchcan?

    Hmm thats a new suggestion.. I went ahead and installed a couple breathers for the time being.. also kinda checking to make sure its not my blower leaking oil, so I cleaned everything out and will be watching it carefully to spot any more oil in the intake.
