    another tranny thread

    I had a rebuilt done years ago while under warranty, so not sure that cost. I did then trash the tranny 8 months ago, and I decided to just replace the t45 with a new t45. I bought the tranny from D&D Performance. Not sure if the cheapest (was $999), The T56 route was just too expensive for me...

    How bad is it to bump the rev limiter?

    I got NO REV LIM anymore. Mike Murillo from MurilloMotorSports turned it off in my Autologic setup. I did a launch at 5K the other day, on a deadend road (were I practice), my tires spun hard, smoked with minor traction (I was moving forward a littlle), I happend to look down and saw 7500...

    t45 to t56 swap?

    Man, I also thought the T56 (Viper edition) was a strong mother. I was going that route the next time I toasted my T45 and getting it from D&D. John

    How bad is it to bump the rev limiter?

    When you hit the REV LIM, computer shuts down 1/2 the injectors, making for a lean condition, so don't hang there too long as everyone is saying.

    My t-45 went out

    D&D Performance. I got a T45 for $999. They have T56 kits too. Not sure if the cheapest around, but their service is excellent. http://www.ddperformance.com

    2001 Cobra 5 to 6 Speed

    As stated above, check with D&D performance, I almost replaced my busted T45 with a T56, but I decided to just buy a new T45 from D&D, they handled my order fast. D&D has a FORD kit for the T56 tranny, wich contains a new driveshaft and brackets/mounts needed for the T56 for our stangs...

    Solid Axle Power

    Like NAZ says, cost is very different, depends on what you want to build. I found a 2000 GT in a collision junk yard (Rear housing was $500 (parts&removal)) a cheap price, I think $850 or more is more realistic), I tossed all the stock parts and bought performance parts. You could save all...

    Solid Axle Power

    NAZ, Wish I would have done this years ago. I did get to jump up and down, and kick my IRS a few times before someone hauled it away for their project. Also, didn't I just lose 100 LBS from the rear end? So I can drop my subway diet, because when I am in the stang, I am now a virtual...

    Solid Axle Power

    03yellowvenum, I would never drop my clutch again with the IRS, since the hop was so bad before. So my left foot is trained to feather the clutch, and will need some re-work now. 01bluecobra, I am in NorthWest area. I do visit AAS now and then. J.

    Solid Axle Power

    Got my Solid Axle project done and put a few hundred miles on the new rear end over a 5 day period so late this afternoon I spent some time practicing a few launches on my favorite deadend road. Dropped the clutch at 4K and hammered the gas. I totally smoked my 315 F1 GS-D3s, as the Tach went...

    Yes or No: Is Bassani worth the extra money?

    I went with these for my solid axle swap. Cheaper than the top of the line Bassani pure stainless exhaust that I had for my IRS setup. But I wanted to keep costs down on swap. I have sold my IRS bassani exhaust so I can not offer them to you...

    IRS to Live Axel swap (99 Cobra)

    My IRS is laying on the floor in a local shop. I got lucky and found a 2000 GT rear end in a collision body shop junk yard. They had no idea the value. I offered $300 and got it for $350.00. But I do think $800-850 is a more realistic price. This is optional, but I also added Moser Axles and...

    Solid A and about time

    Well I have broken the IRS setup for the last time. I was on a hill, and when I hit the gas i heard a pop. I sit at the busy intersection with the stang frozen, she would not roll at all. I cursed the IRS setup. A police assistant volunteer in a truck pulled up to help with trafffic, and he...

    Tires

    I also am a fan of GoodYear's new F1 the DS-G3. If you can find them. I got 255s on the front since I could not find 275s anywhere. I got both 285s and 315s for the rear but running 285s for now until I get my spacers. They hook up pretty good for a street tire. Even better as you put some...

    03 cobra rev limiter

    I am running with my autologic chip disabling trac cntrl. So nice not to deal with it anymore. I just run awesome tires that can handle all weather, and now leave the DRs only for the track. I also got the rev lim turned off too. I have not been able to enjoy that one since my current setup...
