    Need pic of 99/01 cobra w/ 03 cobra hood

    Anyone have any pics of a 99/01 cobra with an 03/04 cobra hood? I've got the 01 cobra front bumper and i'm thinking about going with an 03 cobra hood, but i'd like to see how bad the gap between the bumper and hood is and how it looks. Thanks

    VT Engines?

    Ya, i remember all the drama with VT and VTCED around thanksgiving last year. I made sure to stay away from VTCED for my engine work after that. Neither side came out looking real good. Not too much of a surprise they are closing now.

    oval throttle body question

    Sorry. Yes, i'm referring to the Accufab aftermarket throttle bodies. I just picked up a Reichard Racing Intake and need an oval throttle body. Wasn't sure if there was any difference between the ones for the 96-98 or 03/04 cobras.

    Can't decide on gauges

    I'm in the middle of a new turbo setup and i'm torn on what to do about some gauges. I had a 3 gauge pod on the a pillar with Boost, Fuel Pressure, and EGT. I sold the EGT and the a pillar pods along with the old turbo. I didn't particularly like the gauges on the a pillar. They are easy to...

    advice on heads

    Starting a new turbo build and i'm wondering what to do about the heads. I've got MPH's 800hp shortblock and i'm building a turbo kit around a Garrett GT42R. I'm looking at around 600rwhp. Could i manage that with the stock 2v heads/cams? Now would probably be the easiest time to get the...

    wire harness, 2000 GT Mach 460

    Sorry to go over this again, but i'm a bit confused. I've done quite a bit of searching and it seems like there are two harnesses that most people are recommending. Is the Metra 70-5511 the correct harness for a 2000 GT with mach 460 when installing an aftermarket head unit and using the stock...

    EGR fitting thread size

    Haha, i was the one who called yesterday morning asking about the size. Buying a $1.50 cap at Lowe's and shipping one for $20 across the country are completely different things :D

    EGR fitting thread size

    That's exactly what i was thinking. Wasn't sure about the size though. Had heard everything from 5/8" - 7/8" and 22mm. Didn't want to start buying random caps when i don't even have the headers with me to test out. I ended up finding an old egr tube that i'm just going to cut and weld shut...

    teksid swap, questions

    So i might have the possibility of getting a teksid block from a 98 lincoln mark viii. What would be involved in swapping into a 2000 GT with the windsor 2v heads? This is assuming new forged internals for the aluminum block.

    EGR fitting thread size

    I'm trying to cap the EGR fitting, not remove the tube. I've eliminated the EGR system and need to cap off the exhaust manifold. I no longer have the stock tube either, so cutting and welding the tube shut won't work.

    EGR fitting thread size

    Anyone know the size of the EGR fitting on the stock exhaust manifolds? Major diameter of the threads would be great.

    cpr fuel rails

    Looking at upgrading the fuel rails and i'm looking at the aeromotive and cpr rails. I've heard a few bad things about the cpr rails, but most of it seems to be older. Did they change the design at all? Any other good rails worth looking at? Your thoughts? Thanks
