    NOS on a 98 Cobra?

    What is a "safe" hp kit for a stock 98 with 46K om it? I don't want to mess with fuel and that crap, so I was thinking 75-100? What will that do to the motor? I have only run blowers, so I am new to the NOS industry. Just for kicks...what do you all think I will run with 4.30's, MAC...

    HELP Exhaust leak , how do I fix it?

    OK, on my 98, I just developed an exhaust leak on my manifold gasket. Oh boy, what fun. I heard I need to drop the K-member to change it. Labor will cost me $400 if I don't do it. Is there another way? It is the driver side. I have another alternative...but it is iffy. Headers. I already...

    03 Snake or Saleen SC?

    Given...you will get more power out of the Snake. I would choose the Cobra...unless it is the S281E. Those are pretty bad. 450 hp. I saw a dyno with 394 at the tires. I almost bought a 03 cobra last weekend with a 14# pulley, CAI, C&L MAF and a TB, Full Bassani Exhaust, and a Predator...it...

    01 cobra vs. 94 corvette

    If you take stock vs stock...MT tested a 94 LT1 6M and it ran a 13.7@104 with a 5.2 sec 0-60. Car and Driver tested a 2001 Cobra (equal to the 99 w/ fix) to a 13.5@105 and a 4.9 sec 0-60. One thing though. The Vettes had 3.42's which were a pretty good match for the 5.7. The 99 Cobra has...

    We all know it was a joke...it is just sad that there are a lot of guys out there that DO put their cars first. It is true, if you treat her right, she will love you more than you could ever imagine. When I told my girl that I would sell my car as a statement of love for her, she started...

    1/4 Mile, Horsepower Estimate

    Like you said? What does that mean? I said 14.3-14.4...no 14.5? Where is the "like I said" relevance there? :rolleyes:

    1/4 Mile, Horsepower Estimate

    93's were the 205, but that was just due to a different rating method by ford. The heads, cam, and intakes were the same. Same motor for the most part that make up the power....now the Cobras were different. I agree with what was said on the AOD and gears...the AOD will eat your power...

    F 303 Cam vs. Trick Flow Cam?

    You will have to have your pistons flycut to meet the lift requirements. You will need stronger springs too. BUT as billetunderwear said, to get the most power for your app, get a custom cam. These cams we see in MM&FF and Summitt are gererally designed for everyone, but every setup is...

    F 303 Cam vs. Trick Flow Cam?

    That is cool. I don't expect everyone to agree with me. But we are talking about a guy that is trying to get the most power out of a stroker...not a "mildly" modded street 5.0. Sure, for a Out of the box headed, out of the box intaked car, the #1 cam would be perfect, expecially if it were...

    F 303 Cam vs. Trick Flow Cam?

    The bigger cam in the 347 will net you tons more power then the F cam. The F cam(.512/.512 288/288dur 110LS??) is a little above and a lot better than the TFS # 1 cam(.499/.510 275/279dur 112 LS) The #2 cam is awesome(.542/.563 286/294dur 112LS). The #3 cam is the most wicked(.574/.595...

    help with engine build up! please read:)

    You won't get 300 rwhp with a b-cam and anything under a 650. I would go the TFS TW's. TW's flow a little better than the AFR 165's. The 185's are killer, but not for your combo. A little too much top end. I would get atleast a 500 lift cam with about 286 duration and a 110 LC. You...
