    LMRs new mesh wheels.

    Don’t want to derail this thread, but send me a PM if you have any information on how the swap was done. Me and dad have always want to swap it and it’s hard to find any good information.

    Very cool! My dad has a 77 Capri II. What are the plans for it?

    LMRs new mesh wheels.

    Saw that same upload today. I like em. One small complaint, the center caps stick out too far. I think they’d look much better with shorter ones. Too bad they don’t make them in five lug.

    It was a great time. Jeff’s a cool dude. We shot the breeze most of the day. For those of you that have the motor tend app, Jeff tuned Finnegan’s thunderbird on an episode of Faster with Finnegan.

    Looking at the damage to all cars, I’d say there’s no way you ‘caused’ the accident. These cars are tin cans and you car would look much worse if your impact caused the damage to the rav4. That being said, the officers and insurance take the easy road and blame the car at the back. Probably not...

    Rest of my post got cut off. Huge shout out to Jeff and everyone at Mo’s Speed Shop. He’s a wizard with these mod motors and more importantly, Jeff and everyone at the shop are all first class. Now time to enjoy this thing instead of working on it!

    Before describing yesterday in detail, a quick run down of the setup. 03 - 04 Cobra engine. Whipple 2.3 with 3.25 upper and stock lower pulleys. Single blade throttle body. 60lb injectors, SCT 2600 MAF, dual walbro 255’s. Long tube headers, x pipe and magnaflow full case mufflers. When I...

    Yes, lots of fox body’s. Jeff, the tuner and co owner cut his teeth on Mod motors. They have a little bit of everything there. Chevy, ford, old school and modern. Very cool place and even better people. The shop has exploded. The parking lot was full. 40 plus cars. All customer vehicles...

    Quick update. Just got home. The car made way more than I thought it would. Need to unload, unpack and eat then I’ll make a more detailed post. Here’s a teaser. First pull, very conservative timing.

    3g Alternator pulleys

    I know from reading all the various cobra forums that alt rpm is a major concern for those that change lower pulley sizes. The go to company for most is Metco. However, those are for 8 rib belts. Maybe give them a call and see if they’re willing to machine a 6 rib in the size you’re after.

    Havent done much the last few weeks. I’ve been driving when I can. Clutch is almost broken in, now up to 400 miles. Getting very close to scheduling a dyno session. Finally got enough courage to install the door moldings. No issues. My worst nightmare was to have the paint crack when half the...

    Thanks. Sealing or adhering to the plastic wasn’t the issue. I wanted to remove and replace the double sided tape with some 3M tape. The door moldings didn’t adhere well and are coming off the silver fox I painted (further back in the thread). Didn’t want to take that chance with mine. The...

    Good deal! I love the way they look. Haven’t finished aligning them and haven’t driven at night, so I can’t comment on that yet. I’ll try to get that done soon and let you know.

    I was hoping you’d reply. I know these sensors are used reliably in many OEM applications. But seem to fail quickly and repeatably in aftermarket applications. It’s all over the Holley Sniper and AEM forums. In fact, a friend with the Holley is already on his third sensor. You’ve confirm...

    Not much to update. Putting more miles on the clutch. Now at 180, 320 to go. The car is running great. I do think my AEM wideband is acting up. The readings swing wildly and really don’t make sense based on how it’s running. A quick google search revealed a lot of problems with those...
