    Dyno Numbers for cheap/free mods.

    Is that the one by Richard Holdener(sp)? I had that book and loved it. It's been over a year and I still can't find it:mad: . I keep thinking it'll turn up. It has a lot of good comparisions.

    Our tops are made of vinyl, the 03-04 cobra vert tops are canvas and give it a distinctive look.

    Just took the convertible in for a new TOP

    The 03-04 cobra tops are sweet! I asked about the cobra top each time I asked for a quote. As an example, this company which is local to me http://www.sabatinicoachworks.com/ quoted me $1500 for the standard top, rear glass, and headliner replaced. I brought up the cobra top and he said an...

    Island Raceway..nice people weird experience.....

    Island is the closest track from my house so I get there on occasion. The fri night pro tree does take getting used to and the guy in the staging lanes is MEAN. I don't know if he was born that way or is just tired of putting up with ricers. I tried changing lanes way back where the lanes...

    Corral running slowly lately?

    hahaha, forgot some people don't get along between the two. I didn't even think of the stangnet vs C-word conflict. I admit I like both sites. They both have good tech to help a dumbass like me. I need all the help I can. :p

    Corral running slowly lately?

    Is the Corral taking longer to load than usual? I have a dial up connection but it's taking me a LONG time to go from screen to screen. I thought I was having problems with my computer but every other site is quick to load except for the Corral? Anyone else notice this? Did they change...

    Just took the convertible in for a new TOP

    I think you're the lucky one. I called every shop I could find close to me. I got in touch with all of them with the exception of one(never answered). Some of the shops were booked for weeks and they were all around 1k, then I got one quote for 1400. I have heard of people getting deals for...

    Just took the convertible in for a new TOP

    Just took my convertible in to get the top replaced. It had a pretty bad rip ever since I bought the car 3 years ago. In the last month the tear doubled in size so I decided it was time. The rest of the top was still in good shape for a '94. I hope the new one lasts as long or...

    Differences between a coupe frame and vert frame?

    The X brace weighs 17lbs, the vert cowl shake preventative is 25lbs, although I didn't weigh it. The funny thing about it is it says 25 pounds on it. The vert CLOTH rear seat is only 11lbs for the bottom and 10lbs for the back for 21 total, A-lot lighter than the coupe. The excess like...

    New #'s-Boost Cooler Works!

    lol, I can appreciate your sarcasm with our comments about your block. It's just worth mentioning because you've sooo far past where the stock block usually can't go. You obviously know what your doing in regards to tuning and have your tune absolutely perfect. That and some really good luck...

    New #'s-Boost Cooler Works!

    How much boost are you running? Did you estimate the fwhp? It's well over 700 with the parasitic loss from the blower. When the motor goes, it's gonna be loud. Are you using the snow kit or a homemade version? It's good to see it works as intended. What are you planning on upgrading your...

    I'm running the stage 1 cam and 1.6's as well with tfs track heat heads.(upgraded springs) It dynoed 305 hp 319 tq to the wheels last may. Your 1.7's should be fine but like others said, upgrade your springs. It's a good cam that I and most others are having good luck with.
