The 03 Cobra starts out as an A Stock car and does not appear in the ESP classifications. I don't think you can swap parts from cars that aren't in the same stock class. A modified 03 Cobra might move up to Super Stock or maybe one of the Prepared class, not sure. I don't have access to Prepared class information whereas Stock and Street Prepared classificatiuons are online here.

Anyone wanna take bets on how long it'll take to blow my transmission? 146,xxx miles on a stock AOD, never rebuilt, higher than normal TV pressure adjustment...going from about 225 rwhp to 300..maybe a tad more...rough math. I give it 2 months.

My stock AOD with 95K miles on it started slipping just a month after I put my s-trim on. The car was only putting out a little over 300rwhp at the time. This was with everyday driving and actually taking it pretty easy on the trans.

Ok, it was just a thought. I'll never understand SCCA rules.....Evo is A-stock but then bump to ESP, 03 Cobra is A-stock then bump to SS or ?

Cool site though, I found out the Sprint is eligible for H-stock or FSP. Anyone want one?

And I guess the Grand Monkey(v8 otherwise not classified) would be F-stock or ESP(if modded) too. Man I could take out some cones with that

5.0's....Ok.,...I'm worried! Mine slips into 2nd already and I can feel either a) major torque loss or b) tranny slippage at launch....

Hows it going fellas? Well im sorry I havent been around the mustang scene lately, but i've been trying to move and work 12 hours days at the same time. We finished painting the house and stuff last week, but this weekend comes the fun part, the moving of the stuff. I will be moving to cocoa off of 520. More than likely I will be seeing you guys at the next meeting though. I'm looking forward to finishing up this moving stuff and getting back to work and cars.

That's cool!

I figured as much about the boat. Have a great time on the cruise.

Sorry, no bike for me. Not as long as I live in FL.

So...you guys think MSD will give me a warrantied exchange on a set of plugwires where one of them is sliced on the wire, and the other, the boot is melted/disintegrated with the internal structure of the wire melted/exposed?? I HATE SHORTY HEADERS. Third cylinder back, passenger side, grounded out on the headers. Constant misfiring.... At least I got the car home.

Speaking of which...on a similar topic...

Anyone wanna buy a set of Accel Superstock 8mm yellow plugwires with 90 degree boots?? Why they don't sell plugwires individually is beyond me.

Any of you guys hear of Stangbang?

stangbang

A few of us from around here are driving out there. Its the second year and they got a few sponsors so it looks like it will get bigger in the years to come.

A friend of mine named Barry, also the owner of fordpower.net and mustangmods.com, started it. I just wanted to see if any of you have heard of it?

Got back from the Special Operations School in Hurlburt Field last night. Holy crap there was some good looking women up there in Ft Walton Beach! I nearly got in a dozen wrecks from rubber necking all the time. Chicks in thongs were walking down the beach every afternoon. Not only was the work up there cool as hell, the scenery was friggin sweet! Lucky for me, I'll be back there next week.

A little update on my 96 Cobra, I put my FR500s on it yesterday and it looks ten times better than those old ghetto wheels that where on it. On the plus side I even found someone who will buy them for a pretty nice chunk of change, came as a big suprise to me. I also installed a BBK O/R X-pipe on friday, one problem, my driver's flowmaster muffler seems to have come apart inside. I can hear the baffle rattling around in it and it sounds like pure ass. So I bought a new 2 chamber for Jay to weld up at lamottas tomorrow. I can't wait to hear what it will sound like with two good mufflers.

Well, I now have a bit of bad news to report on my car. I have discovered that my power steering fluid is leaking, at a quite alarming rate. I'll wipe up a fair sized amount at night, and in the morning, it has reappeared. Luckily, I was taking the Talon in tomorrow for a tune-up anyway, so I guess I'll have him fix the leak in the Stang as well.

baglock1 · Jun 15, 2003

Well, somebody f**ked with the wrong guy. I just got a nice letter from my bank explaining that the certified check someone sent in payment for some stuff of mine was counterfeit.

Now Mama didn't raise no fool, so I hadn't sent anything off yet but I'm still pretty pissed. Looks like I'll be contacting the FBI tomorrow.
