Any of you 96-98 Cobra guys with an S trim have a hard time installing it? If so, what type of problems? I'm not done yet and it has been the hardest install of any aftermarket part I have ever bought.

....wow. No response. It turns out that my custom made Fluidyne super-tanker radiator is too big. Crap!!!! I will be using the car for long distance racing and the radiator is more important than the blower. I spent a lot of time doing the install. Too bad. Anybody with a 96-98 Cobra looking for an S Trim? I have a lot of goodies to go with it including 42lb injectors, SCT 4 position chip, Anderson power pipe, Pro M.....If so, $2500, check the classifieds. Looks like I'm getting an intake, cams and ported heads!. What a loss....it's only money I guess.
