    time to let the notch go

    that'd be a badass idea to throw a 4v in a fox. ideally i would do that to my notch, but i don't have the time nor the funds now, and need something to drive everyday. i've heard an 03 with comp cams, but from what i know they have to be HUGE in order to give that badass race-sounding idle...and...

    time to let the notch go

    well then we must have heard different 4.6s because unless it was a huge cam, i havent heard any 4.6 4v that sounds like anything other than being under water. which isnt a bad thing either, i like the sound. just don't think it holds a candle to a 5.0 idle. and you said camS with an S...those 3...

    time to let the notch go

    thanks...the school is only fifteen minutes from my house, and as far as getting around on campus, all the buildings are close enough to walk and be there in 2 minutes, so i thought it wouldn't be too bad. the other thing i wanted was a sick sounding idle :D and nothing against the 96-8s but the...

    time to let the notch go

    maybe not "unique" but atleast one of the rarities. and maybe i have not expressed how low funds are lol when i get my 95 snake the mods will definitely be over time...not the day after i get it. and my brother, who drove a 99 cobra for a while (to date the most beautiful cobra i've ever seen)...

    time to let the notch go

    i understand what you're saying, and i wouldn't disagree with you. I just know that with my minimal funds (due to college) the 302 would be my best bet IF anything were to happen. i also like to have an idea of where to start, too, if say i wanted to tear into the engine further down the road. i...

    time to let the notch go

    Okay, well for one I've driven an SN with the motor in the cobra i am getting, and yes, it kicks the ass of my notch. secondly the comment about putting the badges on a cobra were meant to be sarcastic, of course they would look out of place, and of course i would like everybody to know it is a...

    time to let the notch go

    well, i hear they're bulletproof but i always think what if...i know it's unheard of for something in those blocks to go haywire if they're maintained, but there's always an exception. i feel good about my choice, and something about driving a 5.0 makes me happy. i was contemplating tearing the...

    Mid pipe

    i'd go with a 2 catted x, buddy of mine had a similar setup without the blower and sounded good but not stupid loud.

    cobra: 94-95 or 96-98

    okay, the more and more i look, a 95 snake is what i think it's gonna be, mainly because (i like to have to comfort of) i know how to work on it if something were to go wrong, it would overheat, etc. on a 4.6 4v i'd be lost :shrug: i remember my brother's car with afr165/custom cam/rpm II and it...

    time to let the notch go

    okay so let's just say i'm not adventurous enough to buy a car with an engine i basically have zero knowledge about. it's lookin like (i'm going with) a 95 cobra w/ afr 165s/x303 cam/ cobra intake. the 4 valves just intimidated me from the aspect of repairs on those blocks are ex pen sive, and...

    cobra: 94-95 or 96-98

    yes, lol out of my price range. i'm still in college and have other things to pay for. and right now it's lookin like a afr165/x303/cobraintake, 95 cobra. for those of you who know more than me, how would the setup i mentioned compare to an afr165/e303cam/rpm performer II intake, combination for...

    Never talk smack if you can't back it up.

    the kid got the embarassment he deserved. don't talk your car up to sound cool if it's stock. you could tell by his attitude that he knew he was caught too, because if he never opened his mouth he woulda said Hey i never said i'd beat you. instead he just sat there like a :taco: and came up with...

    cobra: 94-95 or 96-98

    okay i realize i posted recently about my notch being up for sale, but between the two family cobras listed in the title, which would be a better choice and why? i'm taking into consideration how fast it is, dependability, ease of modifying (as well as price)...all opinions welcome

    time to let the notch go

    because i want a 4v but don't want to have to pay an arm and 2 legs for it. for everybody who put a :(, i will get my asking value for it. i realize notches are not seen every day and i will be damned if i'm gonna let some jackoff try to talk me down. this decision took some loooooong and hard...
