    Can I use 03 Cobra Cams in 99 cobra heads?

    His imagination. 03 Cobra = Mach 1 = Navigator. Same cams on all three.

    Which X pipe for max clearance?

    It's the shape of the cats that creates the clearance problem. The round ones like SLP or new Bassanis probably drop 1/4-1/2" lower than an oval shaped/flat bottom ones like Magnaflow. For that reason, I would go Magnaflow. The actually X-pipe crossover section does not hang down much lower...

    2006 V6 Mustang vs. Grand Prix

    GP supercharged vs. Stang I drove the SC GP. Yes, it has power (straight-line) but it is big and clumsy next to the Stang. Stang is tight, has much better weight distribution, fits like a glove, and you can always work with bolt-ons, etc. to get more power. These are two different cars, with...

    2001 Cobra vs. Mach1 ('03 / '04)

    I've dynoed an 01 Cobra with catback and pullies and CAI (C&L) against two Mach 1s (03 and 04) that were bone stock. Came in dead tie in hp and the Machs made 20 more lbs TQ. This was done on two different occasions. Conclusion: the Mach has more stock hp and torque than 01 Cobras, about...

    Rear strut tower brace for 99 cobra

    I have the KB rear shock brace welded. If you have coilovers, or ever think to be getting them, WELD the brace in because the hardware can hit the coils. The weld is also tighter for the suspension and will never loosen up, plus the weld looks better and you can spray paint the welds with black...

    What's the best oil filter to use on an 03?

    SHM in his book says Mobil 1 are the best, but says that stock Ford filter is fine too.

    hushmasters?????????

    I saw a Flow Hushpower cutaway exhibit -- you don't want one. It necks down inside to a very small diameter and it won't make any horsepower for you. It's about sound maybe, but hp gain it's not.

    Yes or No: Is Bassani worth the extra money?

    The Magnaflow catback is designed to accept the Bassani baffles. I have the baffles in mine. They drop the volume by about 30-40% and eliminate the 2,000 rpm drone. A recent dyno test by either MM&FF or 5.0 Mustangs shows no hp loss with the baffles so they are worth it if you want it quieter.

    Yes or No: Is Bassani worth the extra money?

    Yes, they do have the "sound" over the Magnaflow. I have Magnaflow and have heard both types going down the street one after another. They do have excellent quality but not that much different than Magnaflow and they offer no hp gain over Magnaflow. The only difference would be a little...

    '01 Cobra Wheels

    Speaking of '01 Cobra wheels, does anybody know of a good company to get them widened? They do look great, but I wish they were 9" wide instead of 8" wide.

    '01 Cobra Wheels

    Are they polished? Then maybe $100-125 apiece depending on condition. If not polished, there's probably little or no market for them.
