    Weld In Flowmasters (finally)

    Ordered Super 40s in the 2.25 size from Jegs, 2-3 days delivery. They're slightly longer than the stock mufflers and the installation was done in 30 minutes or so. The guy who did the work said it was one of the easiest he had done. The sound is nice, but fairly quiet, you can...

    Fuel Vapors? Occasional stall? '01 cobra

    I've had a silver 01 cobra for six months. a previous owner put in a fuel cell, oversized fuel filter and line, bored short block (with procharger and more, 525hp), plus an '03 IRS, then put a stock cobra '01 engine back in, replaced fuel cell with '03 tank/pump, added stc chip "for change of...
