    Trunk Lid Bumpers 1996

    Is there a source for the trunk lid bumpers for a ‘96? In the picture, it would have been a rubber pad or plastic on the end of the spring in the center of the photo. I looked at National Parts Depot and couldn’t find them.

    12V switched hot?

    I am installing a fuel pressure gauge in my ‘96 Mustang Cobra. It requires a 12V switched hot—as my car is really low mileage I really don’t want to tear the dash all the way apart or cut the harness up, any ideas on an easy to get to 12v switched source under the dash? I thought about the...

    Clutch Recommendations: Blown '96 Cobra

    The clutch is out of my '96. It has a Procharger and makes about 425 horsepower at the wheels. Does anyone have a recommendation for a clutch that can take the abuse but still offer decent pedal effort/driveability? I have been looking at the F1 stage 3 clutches on eBay with both the Fidanza...

    Cooked clutch

    Well, I discovered the stock clutch does not hold up long behind 500 horsepower. I thought it smelled funny when I came home a few weeks ago. Turns out the clutch is fried. The pedal is all the way up and the auto-adjuster appears to be completely adjusted. It still engages, but I am not...

    Cobra Oil

    Probably a simple question, but I want opinions on running 10W-30 in my '96 Cobra. Spec is 5W-30, not sure if it makes that much difference. Car is very low mileage (under 9,000). Your thoughts?

    Longer Wheel Studs for 9" rear

    I am finally putting my 69 Mustang back together after painting a few weeks ago. First order of business was rear axle. When I went to test my new wheels on my 9", I found the wheel studs are too short. Does anyone know what part number/brand I need to order to get a 1/2" longer press in...

    Type F, Type FA, Mercon, what fluid?

    It has been a loooong time since I had a Mustang with an Automatic transmission. Back when I and my Mustangs were younger, you could go to the store, almost any store, and buy Type F fluid. After shopping high and low, all I have found locally is Type FA. Is that good enough for my 72 Mach...

    Template is 0.020" off - is that a big deal?

    I made my own Shelby drop template tonight. After rechecking the "new" holes on the template, one is .020" off from the other one. Basically one hole is slightly lower than the other hole. That isn't a lot, do you think that would be a problem or should I make a new template? (Sorry, but...

    Does anyone have one of the Shelby drop templates and drill bits that I could rent or borrow? I have a paper template that I could apply, but I don't want to be "off" when I do this as there is only one chance to get it right! I have drill bits up to 1/2", but as you know this needs to go...

    Tremec swap ????

    Ok, I am confused. You can buy a Tremec TKO swap kit which includes a bellhousing from some places advertised as fitting 289, 302, & 351. Other places sell a kit with an adapter/spacer to install the TKO with your original early style bellhousing. As I am cheap, I am not willing to spend the...
