    My engine does not sit right (pics inclued)

    Crossmember is definitely installed correctly...hmm. I am going to be looking more deeply into this next weekend when I have my front and rear suspension torn apart and swap K-members. I am crossing my fingers that swapping out K-members will cure my problem, it is really hard to tell if the...

    New DD - 2006 GTO

    Not trying to be Debbie Downer but I gotta agree, It looks just like a Grand Am to me. With all that factory power though who cares right? :)

    Strange adj. struts/shocks?

    How good are these compared to Bilstein or Tokico? I am getting my order placed today for all my suspension stuff, I am planning to use Bilsteins at the moment. Still just looking to save a couple bucks wherever I can :)

    MM recommends 325-350# c/o springs, what for rear?

    Well they told me that the rear c/o setup experiences a lot of bottoming out when going up driveways or on bumps/etc. Sounded odd to me but hey they are the experts, if they recommended against it I just assumed they are correct. Not too often a company will tlk you into spending less money...

    MM recommends 325-350# c/o springs, what for rear?

    yeah I forgot to mention it but I have a panhard on the way as well. And they know m setup since they recommended it all (they told me to stay away fom rear coilovers on a car that does any street duty). I will probably eventually go with heir torque arm setup but it isnt in the budget this...

    MM recommends 325-350# c/o springs, what for rear?

    What rear H&R springs would match 325# in the front? I want to stiffen the ride a lot from where it is now, but it still needs to be streetable since I drive it to work a lot, I do have another daily driver though. I will be doing a lot of things next weekend, MM front A-arms, SN-95 spindles...

    bbk ssi intake: hype or not?

    I remember around the time it first came out MM&FF did a comparison of it vs. (I am pretty sure it was extrude honed) Cobra intake. It bested the cobra intake at pretty much every rpm in both torque and hp. As for more extensive testing I couldn't find much more using a quick google search but...

    New lights: Repro or Ford original ???

    All I know is do not buy the $200 6 piece aftermarket projectors from 50resto...they really look sharp as hell but the quality is very bad. First day I had them one of the inside lens covers just fell off and the other one cracked. I used some clear silicone and made the look ok, contacted...

    5.0 Longest engine life possible??????

    My 88 Lincoln LSC had 260k+ on it when I upgraded to the 93 Cobra. Man I loved that car, I really miss it sometimes...it was an awesomely smooth ride but I had Flowmasters on it and a few other little things and it would really start purring when your foot went down on the throttle, but it was...

    My engine does not sit right (pics inclued)

    Well I used a regular cross member when I replaced it with no problems so it couldnt be that I have a SN95 Tranny/bell right? I will give the tranny mounts a once over tonight or tomorrow.

    My engine does not sit right (pics inclued)

    The tranny and bellhousing is stock, I have changed the clutch assembly and the tranny crossmember but it did not change anything. And actually the brake fluid is in fine shape...just my engine bay is absolutely filthy :(

    My engine does not sit right (pics inclued)

    That orange their is actually from some orange high mile radiator fluid from a while back that came through the overflow before I got my fan clutch changed out. That stuff really dyed some things orange and I haven't got to cleaning it all up.

    My engine does not sit right (pics inclued)

    Well without going to the extent of taking the cover off I can tell you when I istalled it it was a PITA because the two rear bolts were partially underneath the non open part of the frame, I could not use a socket on them, I had to wrench them on if that tells you anything, The tranny is...

    My engine does not sit right (pics inclued)

    I got stock replacement motor mounts, it was already sitting that far back before and after the motor mounts..all the motor mounts did was cure the problem of it sitting too far toward the passenger side. And I am not going through U-joints abnormally...although I think that just because I am...

    My engine does not sit right (pics inclued)

    I am thinking K-member or the frame :( I didnt replace the tranny mounts when I changed teh clutch, I only replaced teh crossmember. Maybe I should just try changing the tranny mounts before doing anything else since upon a visual inspection the k-member and frame do not appear to be off any.

    My engine does not sit right (pics inclued)

    Well like I said I already fixed the problem of it sitting too far to the passenger side by putting on new energy suspension motor mounts. But it definitely sits a bit too far back toward the firewall, I will head out right now and snap some pics of how my shifter is sitting right now to show...

    My engine does not sit right (pics inclued)

    So ever since I got my 93 Cobra the engine has not sit right. When I first got it the engine sat too far back towards the firewall and it sat too far to the passengers side partially smashing the Air Inlet hose and Mass Air meter against the side of the engine bay. The car was in a front end...
