    Possible transmission trouble

    Do you have an aftermarket quadrant or firewall adjuster? If not try manually adjusting the slack in the clutch cable by placing the car in 1st gear with the engine off. Then reach down and grab the clutch pedal and pull it towards you. If there is any slack in the cable it will get ratcheted...

    How strong is an 03 engine?

    Most say the crank is good to almost 1000 RWHP. The stock Manley rods are actually the weak point and some say they are good up to approximately 750RWHP if you replace the stock rod bolts with some better quality ARP fasteners. U.M.

    If this 03 cobra was yours?

    Yeah if I were you I'd go back to that shop and raise some hell. If they reassembled them it should have been done to factory specs. U.M.

    If this 03 cobra was yours?

    Okay lets get the facts straight first. You sent both heads to the shop in fully assembled form (cams, rockers, followers, etc.) correct? Exactly what was the shop paid to do to the heads? If they were paid to disassemble, repair/replace parts, and then reassemble you might want to...

    Gas pedal recall?

    I believe since this was a safety recall it would be open to all 03/04 Cobra's regardless of whether they were in or out of warranty. U.M.

    Heated Seats in the 04 cobra?

    Negative. No option for heated seats in the 03/04 Cobra's... or any Mustang that I'm aware of for that matter! U.M.

    04 Cobra with a salvage title?

    Yes. The evenflow cooling mod does not utilize the port on the back of the head like the Apten on my former Cobra. You will have to pull the blower to install the evenflow however. That's easier than dropping the tranny though. :nice: U.M.

    Blew Diff seal 03 Cobra

    Actually sooner or later the seal on all 03/04 Cobras will leak. It's because of the added torque applied to the housing/cover from the torque brace. You won't have to drop the housing out completely, but you may need to pull the exhaust out of the way. I HIGHLY suggest that if you are going...

    04 Cobra with a salvage title?

    Hey laser, did you ever look into one of the other head cooling mods that dont require you to drop the trans, like the LDC? U.M.

    Broken cam gear

    Yeah I think that unless you have a bore-scope you'll have to yank that head back off and perform a visual inspection to make sure you didn't damage the vales & pistons. U.M.

    03 cobra Fuel injector question

    I wondered if something in that head you replaced had let go. Will the tech who assembled it handle fixing it on their own dime? U.M.

    04 Cobra with a salvage title?

    Keep in mind that many Cobra's tick, most from the drivers side head. Since the noise goes away after 5-10 minutes it's very possible you're hearing piston slap which is also somewhat common in the 03/04's. U/M

    03 cobra Fuel injector question

    I would think if the PCM were bad you'd see a CEL. U.M.

    WHY DOES MY EXHAUST SOUND FUNNY?

    If you've never used an "X" pipe and are used to the sound of an "H" pipe that may explain it. The "X" pipe does have a more "Exotic" type sound when compared to the "H" pipe. U.M.
