    Differences between 1999 and 2001 cobra....

    oye, here ya go... BTW, my numbers are uncorrected on a Dyno Jet. That day, however, the SAE numbers were within five hp of Standard numbers. The car was dynoed at Lugens in Miami. And I don't have the graph scanned or anything... I suppose I could get a roommate to put it up if you really...

    Does 03/04 really need shifter?

    You can't fail with a Pro 5.0. In my experience (with various 5-speed trannies) the Pro 5.0 is the best. Of course not everyone agrees. It comes down to what you can afford and if you like the first thing you get or not. And, yes, the 03/04 Cobra needs an aftermarket shifter...

    which mi-pipe for cobra?

    If you want more power, it will get louder. These things scream. Get a catless X pipe and change your gearing to take advantage of the high end torque since there is no low end...

    Differences between 1999 and 2001 cobra....

    I make 320 rwhp and I have nothing but bolt ons. I still even have the stock airbox--it's just cut to have a bigger opening. Plus I have a TKO which absorbs more power than the T45 or 3650. No real point, just bored.

    OIL: 6 or 7 quarts ?????

    Hey, do what you want, but these motors have very little tolerance for overfilling... Why tempt fate? It's a bad idea to put more oil in a motor than what the people who designed and built the thing says is right.

    OIL: 6 or 7 quarts ?????

    Um, you can destroy your engine if you overfill... Don't put any more than 6 quarts in your motor...

    stupid z28 owners

    I was refering to what 302cobra97 said about some guy with a Z28. He implied he was talking about an LS1 because he refered to it as having "only five less hp than the Cobra". This statement is refering to a Z28 other than the one in the first post. I am well aware that a 97 Z28 uses and LT1...

    stupid z28 owners

    OK, with a stock motor, you are absolutely correct. He doesn't know what he's talking about. But all of us didn't know what we were talking about at one point when we were learning, so cut him a little slack (unless he's a prick, hehe). But he isn't representative of most F-body...

    Headers/Cats hitting ground with springs installed?

    Uncle Meat, I know what you mean, but it's a price we pay to get the things to look good and go fast. Plus, I'm probably biased with the really good roads we have in Florida. I say if it's something you are truly worried about, leave the ride height stock--03's are already pretty decent. You...

    Headers/Cats hitting ground with springs installed?

    I agree with 99SVTAddict. I have BBK LT's and the car is lowered with Steeda springs. I do hit sometimes, but that is only because the University of Florida is obsessed with high speed bumps... Otherwise, I never bottom out the car on the exhaust. Granted, I don't have cats back there, so I...

    Again, we know nothing of mods and tuning on this supposed 600 hp car... Give me a 97 Z28 and I'll make 10 lbs put out 600 rwhp, you just may not be able to recognize the motor...

    stupid z28 owners

    Um, it's late and all that, but what you said makes zero sense... Were you trying to make fun of the "Z28 guy" in question, the original poster, me... I'm very confused. I did not see anywhere in the thread or any linked thread (which does not exist) that stated anything other than what I...

    timming adjusters

    UPR will work with any pulleys except Steeda pulleys and Steeda TA will work with only Steeda pulleys--or so I've been told.

    stupid z28 owners

    OK, is his motor stock? With the proper blower and supporting mods, I don't see how 600 hp @ 10 psi is so far off. He could be running some spray with it. Blower cam, head work, etc. You come off sounding rather ignorant in this post, actually. Not trying to flame, but you know what they...

    Am I the only one who's TA never worked? Mine always caused the knock sensor to back off timing a ton. I replaced the sensor in the stock position and now the car runs stronger...

    Best gear Ratio 3.73s or 4.10s

    Number of posts does not necessarily indicate level of knowledge. I only have like five posts at modularfords.com and maybe 20 at svtoa.com, but I know a decent bit about Cobras and Mustangs in general. This guy has proven his ignorance with the content of his posts...

    Best gear Ratio 3.73s or 4.10s

    That isn't style. That's lack of an education.
