    Nice. I see you are also in San Antonio. Was that at San An Raceway? 13.13 thats pretty unlucky. :D Hopefully I'll be in the low 13s with my new Motor Murillo just built me. Im still breaking it in as well as the new clutch.

    1999 Cobra or 2000 Saleen?

    If you want more speed for less money, go with the Cobra. Saleens are masked up GTs unless they are the supercharged versions. You are paying for the name, suspension, rims, and very few HP over a GT. Not worth it at all, unless you like all show and no go.

    Which wheels on 00 Rio Red GT?

    Straight up. Im not trying to sound like I am the first to put this rim on that body style, but seems like the little wanna be's around here always take my ideas. I tell them what kinda rims Im going to get, cause it takes me longer since I work for my ish, and they go out and get em. One time I...

    white smoke at start up

    A 100 shot of nitrous on it at one time? Please tell me you forged the internals. Stock motors cant really handle nitrous, not even the Cobras. I just bought my 97 Rio Red Cobra from a guy who ran Nitrous and he swore he replaced the motor, but come to find out my head gaskets were leaking and...

    Fill me in on 95-98's if you can..

    Definitely a 96-98 Cobra. They are becoming cheaper and have the most power out of those years. They start with 305HP at the flywheel and with a few cheap bolt-ons (H or X pipe, Cold air, catback, etc.) they will easily get into the mid 13s. Can't say the same for any of the other cars in the SN...

    Texas Emissions Laws

    Im here in San Antonio as well and its a joke. All you have to do is go to the Southside. $12.50 no prob. Sometimes they charge you $20 like my friend Pancho who has a busted ace 87 IrocZ with no horn, reverse lights,etc.

    took the Bullitt to the track

    Yes. That intake is a lot better than you think. Im pretty shure it didn't come stock with better pulleys. Also the suspension is helping it get down the track too. That suspension is very nice. My Bullitt felt like it pulled harder than my 97(Green)Cobra, and wouldn't be surprised if it did. I...

    Full exhaust on a 97 Cobra,What to get?

    Bassani would leave my cornhole raw. Talk about those prices, I would get totally raped. I mean I know Bassani sounds awesome, but dang. I'm thinking of actually going Mac long tubes, with Mac shorty H, and Magnaflow catback, not the magnapacks. Anybody running this setup? I think it would sound...

    Full exhaust on a 97 Cobra,What to get?

    Ok, so Im contradicting myself by saying only newbies on here ask exhaust questions. To make a long story short, I hydrolocked my old motor, and am having a new one built by Mike Murillo (forged internals and all the goodies). Upon pulling my engine, they noticed I have a crack in the Motorsport...

    Speedometer Dead...Help???

    Were you messing with the stereo last? I remember on my 96 GT when I used to mess with the stereo without disconnecting the battery I would blow a fuse. The fuse is a light blue 15 amp fuse. Everyhting worked perfectly except for the power locks, the stereo, the speedo, and it wouldn't count...

    Acceptable hood 4 my bullitt?

    The manager here at Mustang Extreme in San Antonio is rocking a Cervinis hood on his true blue Bullitt. It does look like the 95R hood, but for 99+. IMO, I think it looks great. The 03/04 Cobra extractor hood is also a good suggestion also. It all comes down to personal preference, and of course...

    My Cobra is Sick. Please help!

    I had blown both of my head gaskets. They are gonna build me a motor with a VT Cobra Sportsman block,ARP studs, Fel-pro gaskets and are sending my heads to a machine shop to be slightly milled. Any input on this setup is greatly appreciated. Anybody running this setup?

    Thanks to all...

    Your exhaust pipes? Like your H pipe? When mine was banging against my frame it was because the motor mounts were loose. Hope this helps.

    My Cobra is Sick. Please help!

    I never smelled fuel. It was always coolant I smelled. I just described the fuel thing because that's what it felt like it was doing. A while back I posted I had cooling problems and everyone was saying there were bubbles in my system and I needed to get them out. Well I tried every method to...

    My Cobra is Sick. Please help!

    Ford wanted $6000 for a stock replacement Cobra motor. I said no way. I am now going with Mike Murillo Motorsports and he is building me a forged motor for $5300. Much better considering what I get. My friend sent me this link http://www.leakingfords.com/signs.html and it described my problem...
