    Port the AFR's or Not?

    I actually have a set of "competition" AFR 165s. I spoke with Tony at length about these at AFR who personally designed the porting program for these specific heads. The 165 comp heads come with more porting, 7/16" studs, and heavier duty springs. Part #1404 Air Flow Research I...

    So should Ford get rid of the Shelby Stangs and bring back the Cobra?

    OK - "Chunky Clean Looks"...translation for you - "Clean Muscular"?? How's that?

    So should Ford get rid of the Shelby Stangs and bring back the Cobra?

    Well, comparing the original MSRP of $34,860 for the 2004 Mustang Cobra Coupe vs. the original MSRP of $42,970 for the 2007 GT500 there's a pretty good hike in cost. I understand the engine is making about 100+ more power in the GT500 and it's a new engine, beefier trans, etc. but it's 8k more...

    So should Ford get rid of the Shelby Stangs and bring back the Cobra?

    Yeah they put the SVT badges on the Shelby to try and hold on to the loyal SVT enthusiasts to make them feel like Ford wasn't going to drop the whole SVT "program" oer say. Don't get me wrong, the 2007 GT500 is an absolutely b-e-a-utiful car. As far as modern stangs go that '07 GT500 front...

    The Shelby GT350 returns to mark its 45th Anniversary

    I think I'd just be happy with a new 2011 GT 5.0, CS lower front splitter, a rear GT500 spoiler, and a vortech blower instead of buying this and keep the extra few thousands in my pocket I'd end up saving.

    The Shelby GT350 returns to mark its 45th Anniversary

    I'm not in anyway impressed with the GT350. Base price of a new 5.0 GT is now 30,500 plus fees etc. Then add another $33k+ to that???!!! So you're lookin' at a new GT350 for a close to $70k????!!!! C'MOOOOOOOON!!! I'd rather buy a one year old C6 Z06 for less! Like someone else already said, go...

    2011 Mustang: Where does it fall?

    I'm very excited about the new 5.0. Not only that but you get a 6-speed...how about that?! 400+ horsepower is a lot and being that the new motor is only 10 lbs. heavier than the current 4.6 3-valve what's not to be excited about. I think the 6 speed could add a little more weight as well but the...

    So should Ford get rid of the Shelby Stangs and bring back the Cobra?

    I was thinking that the KRs and the Super Snake would go away as well. The reason I'm saying this is - well as much as I don't want to say this - but the car market is starting to change again. Car makers are making more hybrids and small econo cars than ever before. Muscle cars are getting...

    anyone running 275s on 17x9s

    If you are just buying the rears - BUY THEM FROM LRS!!!! They match the closest to the factory 17x8s. If you keep the stock springs or do the C-springs (which personally I do not like because I hate the jacked up in the rear look) you should be OK to not roll the lip. Mine car is dropped 1.7"...

    So should Ford get rid of the Shelby Stangs and bring back the Cobra?

    I guess what I was thinking was when the next generation body style comes out, drop shelby name all together and make a lighter, more nimble, Mustang Cobra (no shelby)...more along the lines of what the 2003-2004 Cobras represented. I really liked the chunky clean looks of that car. No flashy...

    anyone running 275s on 17x9s

    If you want to do the whole staggered wheel and tire deal anthracite bullitts with 17x8 and 17x9 sizes - (2) 245s and (2) 275s you can do the whole deal through American Muscle the cheapest and it all matches, free shipping mounting and balancing. I shoulda done it this way the first time...

    anyone running 275s on 17x9s

    Here ya go. I bought my current 17x9 rears with 5.9 backspacing from LRS. Mustang 94-04 Wheel, Bullitt, Anthracite, 5 Lug, 17X9 at LRS - Same Day Shipping! This wheel matches the factory 17x8 anthracite wheels closer than anybody's bullitt wheel. I found ou tthe hard way that there are more...

    So should Ford get rid of the Shelby Stangs and bring back the Cobra?

    So what do you guys think, should Ford ditch the Shelby Mustangs and bring back the Cobra? I talk to a lot of my buddies about this constantly. I think if Ford where to bring back the Cobra, put in a lighter supercharged 4-cam engine, 6 speed...maybe offer an optional paddle shift? I miss the...

    The 5.0 Mustang is Back!

    The 5.0 is back! - It's a smart move, we've been askin' for it now we got it. It may not be the pushrod version but who cares. It gives the Mustang a 302, more power, keeps things light weight, and I think for the first time in a long time the Mustang GT will beat a comparable Camaro SS in a...

    Show off your stang

    Beautiful color! I was wanting to do a 93 Cobra clone in that color, black stripes over the top, GT500 rocker stripes and do it as project "Copperhead". Thought it'd be a nice them. I was also thinking of black spoked wheels similar to the PS engineering wheels on the modern Eleanor. Nice car!
