    For all the people wondering about targa tops....

    Yeah....I do have news. I had the car listed for sale prior to finding the targa thing and was on the fence the whole time. Well a kid that hadn't left me alone randomly called me saying he was going to be at my house around noon (Totally insane that you would make a 4hr trip without clearing...

    h/c/i

    I completely disagree with the purchasing of 165s in place of the 185s. Do NOT limit yourself later by your heads; I wish I had done differently when purchasing my own. Are you guys really crying about cam swapping a 5 liter? On a mustang board no less? What does it take; all of 3hrs?

    h/c/i

    Or he can use his low milage shortblock and have alot of fun on a budget renting a flycutter and throwing it all together. We made 310/330 rwhp with a 'crappy' f-cam using a 1.6 rocker vs 1.7s and ported gt40s on my brothers cobra. It may not be the 'best' cam, but I'd say its far from...

    He has a stock shortblock. Of course aftermarket pistons offer larger reliefs :shrug:

    h/c/i

    Been there done that...there is no way to accomplish this without flycutting the pistons. The issue is not with the size of the cam, but the fact that the factory valve reliefs simply will not support a 2.02 intake valve used in a 19 degree setup (TFS TW heads get around this only by angling the...

    Uncorked Horsepower?

    Sounds like an issue with the tune or a mechanical problem. Is it tuned? Do you run an FMU or do actually have a good 1:1 rising rate regulator on the car? Although I am sure it is different with each tuner; mine requested 39# fuel pressure; and I only run 10degrees advance as the rest is ECM...

    Help me decide on my paint job!!!

    That sucks. I just threw mine back together for the same reason. Good days work and it's back on the road. Not like you need another downfall now though :(

    Still cant rev past 3500rpm

    Check the timing. Make sure the spout connector is in place by the MAF harness. Check for correct fuel pressure. Check plug gap (use new clean plugs). Could be the PIP but you can at least check the rest before spending coin on a dizzy.

    Should I trade my Chrome 03 Cobra's for Saleens?

    I kinda like a bright wheel; and although it does sorta look like the wheels belong on the other guy's car, I think a black 03 cobra wheel would look extra sinister. Theyre just so chunky. I know you're promoting, but if you lost the giant bright windshield banner, then your cobras would look...

    On 3 Performance Turbo Kits

    There is nothing more true in life than : YOU GET WHAT YOU PAID FOR. That said, for an entry level kit; it's not that bad. I've no idea if the person complaining of mild steel vs. stainless had his headers heatwrapped, but ANYONE used to dealing with turbos knows that it's almost a given...

    For all the people wondering about targa tops....

    Not yet. Trying to really weight this decision and find more pictures of finished cars. I found a few of that red white and blue car and it just looked tacky upclose. I was also told you need to fill the rear quarter windows for support and idk if I'm willing to do that. I was planning on a 6pt...

    Lowering your mustang on a budget - with new parts!

    Super clean! Love silver fr500's ;) No idea why everyone buys black and anthracite...they don't come close. Stance looks really clean. They may settle over time and you can always add the x2's later on. I was looking at my before/after pics and they do make a decent difference.

    For all the people wondering about targa tops....

    Actually I did a long time ago...these are old; pre X2 stance/tint, but you get the jist: This has been a LOOONG time coming ;)

    Help me decide on my paint job!!!

    Get them springs on!!! ;) Really try to follow the 500 mile break in and make sure you have some freeplay in your clutch pedal. I actually have a Ford Racing HD clutch (the crappy on KC version) holding fairly well.

    For all the people wondering about targa tops....

    Meh, I've cut, welded, spliced, fabbed etc; and am pretty darn sweet with bodywork. Between myself and a few talented friends I'm not too worried. Considering most people can barely install the basics; and from what I used to have to deal with as I 'was' the professional shop...I'd be afraid...

    For all the people wondering about targa tops....

    I can garuntee I want this more than anyone on this site....I was to the point where I was going to make my own last year. If I could get my roof to come off, there's no way in hell I'd sell this thing. I'll just have to cage it with the blower lol.

    Holy Wheelgap Batman!

    ...Might be eating my words on this one if I happen to pick up this targa conversion. Drivetrain aside my #1 peeve is the fixed roof and this is what I've always wanted! :D
