    '01 Cobra SVT Styling

    My buddy wants to get a body kit for his 01' Cobra. I disagree with body kits, but i would suggest a new front and rear bumper. Maybe stalker kit or cobra R. Does anyone have any recommendations, pictures, or a good site to go to? Thanks for your help.

    Roughness to Engage

    My boys '88 GT is having trouble getting into gear. Sometimes it slips right in and other times he has trouble with it. I don't believe it's the clutch because once the shifters in gear he's fine. Could it be the syncros? Linking? Thanks for your input.

    idling rough at warm up

    My buddies 5.0 is having idiling problems. He has a '88 GT. He says when it's cold it's fine but once the car warms up the idling jumps from apprx. 750 to 1400, back and forth. Any ideas to help him out? I thought maybe the injectors need to be cleaned but that is a really rough idle. Thanks guys.

    body kit?

    A buddy of mine has an 01' svt cobra. His dad cracked his rear bumper and now he seems to be taking desperate measures and looking into body kits. I personally are against body kits of any kind. Do you think a body kit is worth it? Do they replace the entire rear bumper?

    01' cobra svt

    My buddy's dad dented his rear bumper cover. I was looking around and I found a finished rear bumper (painted) OEM for 200 bucks. That seems crazy to me. It's on sale, but does that seem reasonable? It usually goes for 400+.

    Possibly running Lean?

    i tired looking into search for past threads about white smoke coming out of the exhaust. I'm not sure if it's simply because its cold and it should come out almost all the time. Usually when i come to a stoplight I will see quite a bit of white smoke coming out of the exhaust pipe even when...
