Got any more pics of the outside? Trying to get some more angles of the bumper. looks good man.

you may notice that the standard 03 cobra bumper has an extra lip that comes down. Well mine did too untill i caught it coming off the trailer when i took it to have it dynoed and snapped a big chunk of it out. But it broke just right that i took and cut off that 2-3 inch lip off all the way around.

The bumper itself doesn't fit exact but it had been sitting kind of flexed for 3+ years. I figure it will work till i come upon something i like better and have some money to spend on cosmetics. I also have a set of cobra fog lights i need to put in and haven't.

Yup Osan haha, and still in the AF actually.

Do you have the bad boy Glide with striaght cut gears, I know those are loud but are super strong. Mine has stock gear set.

 

[moneypit94]

yeah. its a built glide.. couldn't tell you what gears but that would make sence.

not all glides are light either...

My old 66 chevy had a iron glide in it behind the 283. The guy who built a 350th for me and swapped it in (I was 17, and had only messed with 4spds until then, striped a 64 Malibu SS, and a buddy had a muncie M20? in his impala from 14-16 in the early 90's) was shocked as iron case glides went out in the early 60's. He kept it and we assumed someone swapped it in at some point...

By light, I was referring to the internal rotating mass, which is critical to horsepower loss, which is very light in a glide. The case is a total different story. I saw a cast iron 4 speed, and bellhousing one time. Holy Jesus that must have been heavy.
