    1993 Cobra

    CAR IS SOLD>>>>>> Thanks!! Black on Grey leather, 5.0, 5 speed, 206K miles. The car runs and drives but needs a lot of TLC. Mechanically all it needs is tires, an exhaust gasket and a front end alignment. Cosmetically it needs about everything: paint, carpet, seats recovered, lights, seals...

    Project Phoenix (94 Cobra)

    :flag: You've motivated me to do the same progress thread on my 93. I just stopped by a garage today and I'll have my own thread going before too long. Hope to hear yours running soon - it sure is hard not to rush the final steps on a project that takes so long. Fire it up!

    New Engine: Initial startup tips anyone?

    I think getting a steady idle may be somewhat difficult at first - or at least it has been for me - as the computer tries to compensate for things. But if you put in the dizz with the cap off, but the rotor on, with the engine at TDC, the rotor should be pointing roughly towards the intake...

    Is it ok to put a 94/95 MAF in the fender

    The 94/95's have the 4 bolt mounting plate yes? Not sure how you're puttig that in the fenderwel, but when i first read your question about which way it should face, i thought you meant which way for the sensor to face to take in air... ha. I had a pro-m in the driver's fender of my 95, no...

    How many gallons will my gas tank hold?

    i always thought it was 15.1 - but I have put 16 in my 89 back in the day... but i have also ran out of gas, so maybe that's not the best course of action... ha

    Need some advice on Oil choices and low mileage car

    from my experience, with oil, as most things in life, you get what you pay for. I've used only Mobile1 in my mustangs for the longest time, with the occasional Catrol synthetic. I don't think changing to a heavier oil is going to stop you leaks. Seals are seals and over time they get wear or...

    cranks neutral balance, internal/external

    thanks for the info gents! That's what i needed to know. Looks like I'm looking for an external balanced crank then, b/c i don't want to buy a new balancer and flywheel, and 28 oz balance will support the 6k rpm max that I'll run. Curtis

    cranks neutral balance, internal/external

    Question here is differences in external/internal balanced cranks. External balanced cranks require that the balancer and flywheel be on when you balance the shortblock... right. I THOUGHT that internal balanced cranks meant that the rotating assembly is balanced without the balancer and...

    Piston Valve Reliefs

    well, in order to know what's the max size valve you can run on a given piston, you'd have to know a lot more than the size of the valve reliefs... and even then, it still has to be checked to make sure. By that I mean that if you're trying to figure out a way to determine how big of valves...

    How to convert to roller lifters...?

    It's been a while since I posted, but I have to since i learned this lesson the hard way a while back. I'm glad to hear that you have the right cam, because that commonly the first mistake. Now youe lifters will ride in the right place in the bosses and not come up too high. Now you just...

    Project Phoenix (94 Cobra)

    oh yeah, i forgot to mention, that thing you soaked in oil, whatever that sensor is, is a b*tch to get off. I've almost always bent the collant line bracket there when taking mine off. did you get it off without bending it?

    Project Phoenix (94 Cobra)

    The gears in the rear are 3.73's. I didn't know you had a cobra motor in your other car, but then again i see that it was a cobra and i was thinking that it was a GT. there may also be a chip in the computer, i forget if its the superchips one or if there is not one in there, so you...

    Project Phoenix (94 Cobra)

    Hey man looking good! That black carpet and steering wheel do look much better, that was something i had always wanted to do. (For those of you who don't know, I am the previous owner of this car). About half of the work that had been done on the car was by the previous owner, and i did the...

    should i sell my 94 cobra? (just bought a 93 cobra)

    well, I actually ran into a slew of problems this summer with the two cars. the 93 needed a new DS, no problem. But it also needed new rear end bushings and the rear frame connector (that goes from one rear sub-frame to the other, above the rear end, had cracked where the upper control arm...

    Who knows about rod/piston/crank specs?

    yeah, I was thinking 2 as well. Simply because it would be more cubes (:nice:) I bid on a cast crank today, but didn't get it. I'm trying to buy this forged internally balanced eagle 4" from a guy, but he hasn't gotten back to me. In any case, I think I've got this figured out. My...

    Who knows about rod/piston/crank specs?

    ok, after a couple hours of searching, reading and measuring, I've got a handle on this whole deal... and learned so much, so fast! So my crank and rods are normal 3" mains and 2.1" rod journals (i miked them). step 1, these pistons are 4.040 exactely pistons... and my block is machined to...
