You know guys, I have noticed Fazm83 has not been around much since his purchase of the 03 SVT Cobra.. Has he caught the disease? The disease of he is to good for us now? :(

No-No Mike. He has been getting the 'Bra fixed. :rolleyes: And he has been over on TMS tormenting me. LOL :p

He's around. Just dealing with the DS and Gears in the new Cobra. Poor Guy (NOT!) He got it all fixed up now. Dealer took care of it all. But, that is where he has been.

I believe that a good differential would survive much longer, but the list of choices for the 7.5 is short, The ring gear shows absolutly no signs of excessive wear or stress.
I am going to research the available options for the 7.5, but I think that the 8.8 is going to be a better choice for us. With this big of a shot the car goes through the traps at a RPM a little higher than desired, I think that a 3.90 or 3.73 is the better choice for this power/torque level.

We knew that we were approaching the failure point of the rear, But no one could say for sure at what e.t. or 60 ft would cause the spider gear to fail.

So now you know for sure.
just a heads up for the differential

Auburn makes a rather strong LSD for the 7.5

also there is the powertrax locker which replaces the spyders in a stock carrier

both are far more stronger than the ford T-lok in my experience. the T-lok spyders are too small and there is little support for them.

TA Performance makes a nice 7.5 girdle also

IMO a 7.5 with the Auburn and girdle should handle just about anything you can throw at it. you weak spot would become the stock axles. hardened 28 spline axlesalong with the above parts i listed should really hold up

my procharged 98 3.8 hasn't hurt my 7.5 yet with a girdle T-lok but the T-lok will fail eventually

my friend ran a windsor powered ranger with 3.45's and auburn LSD with no problems at about the 450tqe level

LOL!! Damn Fazm83, your full of stories to tell.. LOL!! Broke your back, Shop burned down! Whooo!! How do you manage? I guess all the Mustangs you own help keep you sane I guess.. Thats a good thing! :nice:

Glad your Cobra is coming along.. Remember, its just a supplement for us V6 guys.. When the GT guys come around, you can pop in and tell them, you own an 03 Cobra, and its no where near as fast as our V6's! LOL!! HHEHEHEHE!!

Welcome man!! Nice to meet ya! So you say you have a 3.8 putting some serious power to the ground huh? Nice.. I too like the idea of us V6'ers keeping the 7.5 and upgrading as needed.. I think its part of the whole package ya know.. V6 as opposed to V8, 7.5 as opposed to 8.8.. I think we should all upgrade our existing 7.5's.. Is it wrong to assume the 7.5 is somewhat lighter than the 8.8? Not sure..

Also, how about you get some links posted for the Auburn parts, and the girdle? Thanks man..

fazm83

Seeing that your bank account will be nice and fat, why not test out the Procharger for your V6? LOL!! Somebodys got to do it! Might as well be you!. Seeing that you already have an 03 Cobra, this will be an easy one for ya! LOL! :D

MSP, here's the link for the axle girdle:
http://www.taperformance.com/rearend.htm
That's one of my planned upgrades.

Jimp,

The girdle cover hits the panhard bar on the GT models. We have not tried one on the 7.5, but my guess is the same fitment issues would apply. I would just check with the vendor before purchasing.

I will most likley get mine from you when I am ready Pwrhws.. So you are my vendor.. So when you work out the issues, let us know when you have the correct part in stock..

@ALL

I am trying very hard not to order the Procharger setup today.. I must somehow find the strength to 1. Wait for PowerHouse to finish the Turbo system.. 2. Wait for more options to pop up..

The price of $3395 for the Procharger is making me anxious to get started.. But I really would like to go with Powerhouses Turbo setup.. :(
