    what do yah get for your 6 grand++

    Theres got to be a good enough base of people on this site that have done the following: 1 buy a KB kit and install it themselves....if enough of you guys out there posted the $$s you put into your kit, plus some extras (some of you guys maybe did nothing to your existing motor, some of you...

    hey there...Im mostly a lurker here at the site, but im always reading up on S/C....Ive been interested in a KB system for my 99 cobra, but it looks to be upward of 7K, just for the kit, let alone rebuilding the stock bottom end of my motor. Anyways, I have been reading about Hellion Power...

    Build a 99, or build an 03

    The age old SC the 99, or buy an 03-04...i know this has been beat to death, but heres the thing. I have the 99, and I can build it. Is it worth all the factory pieces to buy the 03, then build it? worth it just for the cast block and forged internals, beefier drivetrain, 6 speed, or can you...

    ...I have lived in chicago my whole life, and my job has me driving 150-200 miles daily...Id gladly trade places being in a nice, small, quiet town vs living in a place where you arent sure if you should honk, cause a roadraged gun toting driver (me) might snap and start taking pot shots :)...

    03+ vs 99 Cobra block question

    When you use the KB kit on an 03/04, i wonder if you scrap every piece of the old eaton sc kit, so you 03-04 owners could make *package deals* out of your eatons, and sell em to us NA guys....interesting:)
