I noticed last night a little pool of oil under my car. After jacking it up and looking both oil pan plugs are dripping very slightly. This is a 7 quart canton oil pan, only 3 years old. I cranked down and its tight, but looking at it it looks like my speed shop added a washer between the bolt...

My car is officially done and back in business. This has been a very long and troubled 3 years and at last I can enjoy the car. I bought this car thinking I could do the work on it myself and it turned out to have so many more problems then I could handle. Since buying the car I've been through...

My pro charger install has officially morphed into a big under taking which equals a lot of $$$. I've been bit by the " while your there". The procharger install went well, the C&S blow through is awesome but we noticed a few things: all wireing grounds power etc is getting old so I had them...

I was at the speed shop yesterday and we were reviewing the install of the new procharger when one of their customers came in selling a brand new V7 YSI. He bought it in November from the shop and now his wife is pregnant and their landlord is selling the house. Long story short I bought the...

Attached is a photo of a lower SVE control arm a buddy of mine had installed on his car and drove a total of 500. He has a pretty stock car with 43,000 miles, 373, exhaust, pullies, cobra intake. The car is never dragged raced and lives the pampered life. He decided to swap out the stock control...

Finally received my pro-charger Saturday , the order got screwed up and it came for EFI and the intake pipe wasn't polished. The local speed shop I ordered it from said the right pieces will be to me by weeks end. New fuel system is in the garage all I need now is my Blow thru carb from C & S...

The last few months I've been real frustrated with my car and I've been thinking about finding a lower mileage cobra or a terminator. I'm just sick of always having issues car not starting etc... Not to mention by my figures with paint and the rest of parts it will cost me about 15 k to be...

In June i finally converted to manual breaks and installed the Baer break kit T6 in the front and their rear system w/ e brake. This was so damn painful, the entire time I regretted not doing a simple cobra disc swap and the cost was well over 4k. I wanted something different and I really liked...

About 8 months ago my starter fried so I replaced it. Yesterday when I went to start the money pit I had to turn the key 3 or 4 times before the starter engaged and started, but it got hung up for a second or two after the car started. Then the fun started I pulled the car into my garage shut...

This past weekend my tranny started whining while driving. I've never heard this before, is this a sign its on its way out?

Im converting my car back to fuel injection and looking at stand alone fuel systems. The PO ripped out all the wiring and harness so I'm basically starting from scratch. I've looked at the fast efi systems but I have no clue what's best. Cliff note version of the motor is a 347 AFR heads custom...

So the Baer Pro + 6P brake kit is ordered as well as the manual brake conversion and master. Upgrading to 31 spline with the ford Motorsport trac-loc. for some this maybe a WTF moment but I've decided to keep the car 4 lug, why you ask, I have 3 sets of rims including the staggered 17" pony's...

My car had had issues with it running hot since I built the motor, using the electric fan the PO had in place. Over the winter I installed a black magic 3300 cfm fan and today I tested it. The temp at idol is around 170 but when I rev it up the temp goes to 190. Driving the temp is around 180...

This has already been a very expensive winter with a new engine build under way and all the interior work. Right now I'm about to install the MM 6 point cage, new struts and CC plates are in, reinforced torque boxes etc.. My question is about the MM Pan Hard Bar. This isn't a track car or road...

My focus this winter was initially going to be interior and finish off the suspension. Then I thought I really need to do the 5 lug conversion because the brakes are scarey to say the least. Now that means sell my new rims to get new rims. All possible and if done right not to expensive...

I'm in the process of upgrading to 5 lug, what's the difference between 94-95 spindles and 99-04. Seems the SN's are more expensive, this is from local salvage yards. Does it matter which one I use?

A buddy of mine wants to sell me the 4 lug aerospace 4 piston front brake kit and the drag kit for the rear, still in the box $500 total never used. Great deal and saves me the money of upgrading to 5 lug and new rims....for now!! Has anyone installed these kits are they really just bolt on and...

Last winter I had my motor built with the intentions of either nitrous or super charge/turbo. After considering all the costs I think nitrous fits more in my budget than the latter. That said I just wanted to get the opinion of other set ups. The following is my build: 358, AFR 205 heads with...

This winter will probably be dedicated to painting the car and finally installing a new interior, my question is what should a good paint job go for? I know it's hard to price something without properly seeing it, but I'm looking for ball park so I know I'm not getting ripped off. 92 notch the...

Just checking to see what everyone thinks a 93 cobra is worth, meaning what would you pay. Yesterday I looked a a 93 with 34k miles and spotless, not a scratch ding or dent, it had cloth black interior not grey leather so I thought that was strange. Only mods were a B cam, pro charger on 8 lbs...
