    Awesome Deal on Fabricated Valve Covers!

    I have actually had my eye on these on and off. Looks like they are perfect in you engine bay there. I can't remember, and your posts only go back so far I noticed in your history - so, did you have any fitment issues with those? I know someone had some VC issues, I just can't remember who it...

    What subframe connectors to use with the borla side exit kit?

    Thanks - just know that it is a lot to maintain Rio. ALMOST as hard as black, but its worth it. Not quite, but close. Its my favorite Color so its worth it. Let us know how your side exhaust plans work out. I am interested to know if it works. As for the EVM piece, it looks pretty...

    WHATS THE MOST AMOUNT OF HOURS YOUVE WORKED IN 1 DAY, AND IN A WEEK?

    Sometimes. It does have its ups. When I was on shore duty, I don't think I worked more than 6 hours day for 2 years. I am just catching up with all the slack time I had I guess.

    Anyone elses car run hotter on the freeway?

    Whats up there JP. Nice to see the car is running. If its just running a bit warmer, that could be normal. My Cobra does the same thing. I know you have aftermarket temp gauge, but those of you that don't would not notice. I have noticed that my oil temp is about 210* on the freeway...

    What subframe connectors to use with the borla side exit kit?

    I was actually out to sea for a few months. I just got back here this weekend. Anyhow, from all the research I did, the spintechs seem like they would work. I never followed through with the project because I couldn't find a NIB Borla kit, and I found someone to make my tailpipes fit with the...

    (remote starter) car cranks but does not start

    This would be where I start. It is not uncommon for the transponder bypass to lose program. You can do some research on the part if you like. Most common is the DEI 555F or equivilant. Any reputable shop should be able to reprogram it, or you can do it yourself. If for some reason it moved...

    WHATS THE MOST AMOUNT OF HOURS YOUVE WORKED IN 1 DAY, AND IN A WEEK?

    Here is a question I hate to answer. I have worked a few 118+ hour weeks. Usually right before we go out on deployment we work 18hrs a day for about 2 straight weeks or so. I still can't complain about 30 days paid vacation a year though. Not to mention all the free days we get here and...

    Tinting over the little dots...

    A lot of people will use a type of vinyl over that section, or they make a special paint for it. I had mine painted, and you don't even notice it, plus it looks awesome from the outside..... I have see a few with the vinyl, and they came out well too.

    I will have a 94 upper some time in the near future. Working on my KB setup.

    95 Cobra help?

    That is indeed an oil cooler line. This oil cooler setup is why there is not a 94-95 cobra specific goodyear hose kit. Those lines are available, but take quite a bit of work to find.

    Corbeau Seat install - PICS

    When I did the swap, I also installed a rear delete. Total weight savings was over 100lbs. I think it was 111lbs if I remember correctly. The factory front seats with brackets, and a power driver seat weight in arount 100lbs if I remember correctly. It has been a long time, so my numbers...

    Pics of Wheels, and the start of winter project parts

    The wheels are acutally Ford GT wheels from CTR. Almost like the FR500s, but different at the same time. Just what I was looking for. They are growing on me pretty quick. As for the bras, they come off the car almost every time I park it. I don't leave them on unless I know I will have...

    New Car Pics - Lowered (D.U.W.)

    Love the lowered look. The frost would have been my next choice. Too bad they are not available in the Cobra. Keep the pics coming.

    Pics of Wheels, and the start of winter project parts

    Thanks guys. I don't know about the wheels yet. I think I have to give them some time to grow on me. I like them, and wanted them because few people have them. We will see. It is gonna kill me to have the KB laying around here. I just keep staring at it. Oh well. Need something to do...

    Pics of Wheels, and the start of winter project parts

    I found a buyer for my chrome Cobra Rs. Wasn't planning on that, but hey. I wanted the BFG KDW NTs, but the 275s are on backorder. I ended up getting a good deal on a set of Kumho MXs. 275/35/18 Front 295/35/18 Rear Pretty happy with them so far. Looks like I will have to adjust...

    speaker size

    Simple answer 5X7 - 6X8 is what these cars came factory with. The first is a measure of the speaker if it were to be bottom mounted. The 6X8 is the actual size, and what Ford would say due to top mounting. This measurement includes the speaker basket, the other does not. The...

    Mobil 1 oil question

    In reality, it is just a replacement 5K - Regular Dino oil 10K - Semi Synthetic 15K - Full Synthetic Don't know why they switched marketing, but whatever. I see the edit above. I think it is all a ploy. I think the oil companies told everyone 3K to sell more oil. Now that we are...

    Trade for 03/04 Cobra?

    You would regret selling it every day. The 03/04 cars are nice, but don't feel like a real power car. Sure they pull, and they can put down some power, but they feel to comfortable. The suspension design makes them a pretty smooth ride. I don't want a smooth ride when I am in my Cobra. I...

    where do I put the A/C compressor/ PS pump

    Make life easy. Pull the power steering pump, and the AC pump should just be able to rest somwhere down out of the way of you swap. I did this when I went to powder coat my brackets. You should not have a problem. It will only take about 10 minutes to pull the PS pump.

    Hey, thanks Grady. Just the info I was looking for. I didn't go back quite that far. I will dig a little deeper and see what I come up with. Thanks for the great starting point. Shane
