    Anyone heard of Evapo-rust?

    Wow, it's been a long time since I've last posted... Anyway, I have the LH floorpan in bad shape (severe corrosion) and knew that re-welding a new pan would eventually be in the future. Right now, it's solid enough with several hours of grinding and neutralizing what was left then...

    Sub $3000 Paxton kit questions

    I was digging around in the 'ol online parts catalogs and found this. I have wanted to boost my '97 Cobra for a while and this seems rather tempting for the low cost as a brand new kit. I've read the attached links and seen that it's a NOVI 1000 turbine instead of 2000, but I think I've read...

    A new smog standard in California for classics?

    Wow it's been a while since I've last posted..... Anyway, Im in Japan (Air Force has me tied up) and my old 70 Grande is in storage. I know this isn't really technical oriented, but can anyone fill me in on what I've heard Arnold has done to put some form of smog test on cars 30 years and...

    O.K. forget fixing the FMX. Will a C4 bolt up the same?

    I ran a post yesterday about my FMX troubles. I have a mildly worked up 351w with the original FMX and it seems to be slipping. Can a C4 simply bolt up in the same place as the FMX without any changes or modifications? If not, what's required?

    Electric Smog pump troubles

    For the first time since I've had the '97 Cobra, I ran a diagnostic through the OBD-II to see what the check engine light was about and I couldn't make sense of the problem. Says "Code:4011 SAI Upstream Flow Error". I disconnected the wiring to the pump, re-tried, then it gave me "Code:4012...

    To possibly sell the Cobra and/or the '70.....what to do.....?

    Ok. I figured this would be the best place to lay this out (if I get a response) so maybe the input here will help me make the right decision. Give me all of what you guys want to say. I was in tech school (USAF) when I had come across a great deal on a 97 cobra approx. 8 months ago with...

    Really Frustrated at Brake Calipers on my '97

    It's been like this for the last month. I've had my cobra for only about four months now and when I had first got ahold of it, I knew the pads needed changing. After buying a (generic?) set of pads from autozone and turning both front and rear rotors then replacing all the pads, I've had this...
