    97 Cobra w/ rebuilt title

    5k seems pretty reasonable to me... If it looks nice and runs good. I think the motor, trans, and ecm are worth right around 4k just by themself.

    Friend just picked up a 98 Cobra

    Are you really asking what do I have to do to make my car faster than my friends? 3:73's are a good mod and would definately help... How much I dont know, but at least the car will be more enjoyable to drive... Catless X pipe is another really good mod probably the best bang for the buck...

    Friend just picked up a 98 Cobra

    Well to the best of my knowledge the 96-98 cobras are essentially the same engine. I used to own a 96 cobra and when I sold it and later bought a 01 Bullitt (bone stock) the bullitt felt significantly slower than my cobra. If I was go guess on 1/4 mile times between your car and his I would...

    sad day...

    I can totally appreciate your situation as I have been there myself. (When I had to sell my 96 Cobra several years ago) Probably the most important thing I can share with you from my experiance is that when you buy another car, make sure it is something you like. It was my experiance that...

    How many gears can you chirp?

    1-2 and can spin almost all the way through 2nd... Rarely get a chirp in 3rd though. (Live at 3500 foot elevation) Never driven the car at sea level.

    Time to replace parts and have Questions

    Originally I had been against the bullitt suspension set up as I owned a bullitt and I didnt remember being all that impressed with how it handled/rode, however, a friend of mine with a 97 GT just did the bullitt susp package and it did make a HUGE diference... And for the price I think it is...

    Control Arm Question

    So you will have to bear with me here as I really know nothing about newer suspension set ups. Here is what I am trying to understand, what EXACTLY does swaping out the lower control arms do for you? How does this improve your 60' times? The only thing I can think of is that they are simply...

    Engine Swap Advice

    +1 I feel you pain being stuck with a V6 mustang, but it will be a huge undertaking and you will end up spending ten times the amount to do the conversion, as you would to just buy a V8 mustang. I instead would try a little harder to convince your wife to let you sell it and put the money...

    BEST HEADS FOR 4.6

    I would just look at the bench flow numbers of some of the bigger brands. I have been looking at heads for quite awhile now, eg. hours into reading and if I was going to go out and by a pair of heads tomorrow, and my equation was horsepower per dollar I would look into the steen racing heads...

    machine gun

    I think it must have to do with the muffler design as I used to have the exact same thing with my O/R H and Ravin Mufflers (straight through design). Now I have Flowmasters and no more machine gun...

    Engine running rough at 1500-2000 RPMs.

    Just a hunch, but I am inclined to think that you may have a "Flat Spot" on the TPS sensor.

    05 gt or 03-04 cobra

    +1 For the 03/04 Cobra... That is going to be my next car, I have never even considered an 05+ GT.

    HP question for 2001 Cobra

    Just curious but is the stock rwhp the same for the 99 Cobra as well? There is a guy who lives down the street from me who has one and has been trying to talk me into buying it...

    Anyone running BBK ceramic coated Long tubes, please come in..

    Mine have been on for quite awhile and where I live there is often gravel on the roads, at any rate pretty much all of the ceramic coating on the bottom portion of my headers/collectors is gone and replaced with surface rust... I am pretty sure that over time this will happen to all headers...

    Finally picked up a 99GT, pics inside

    +1 Thats a nice looking stang! I wish I had the 01+ hood... Also from looking at the pictures it appears that you have an aluminum intake manifold?

    mustangs with stripes..?? anyone

    I will try and post some pictures tomorrow... I have a white 2000 GT with black mach 1 stripes down it. It came on the car when I bought it, and at the time I didnt really it. However, after having the car for awhile my opinion has changed for two reasons: A. I get a lot of compliments on the...

    How hard do you drive your GT?

    I hate to admit it, but I really have never thought about how hard I drive my car... This is my 3rd 4.6 mustang and all of them I have driven "Hard" eg taken to redline (Or very close) at least once every time I drive it. Most of my normal shifting is around 4k. I have always done very...
