    Oil capacity... two different answers.

    Overfilling is not really an issue with OHC motors since they hold alot of oil in the top of the motor. I run 6.5 quarts in my Cobra, .5 more than recomended because mod motors have issues with oil draining back into the pan. I'd say if you are running any less than 6 quarts you are running...

    HP question for 2001 Cobra

    The 99 SHOULD make the same horsepower as long as it got the fix. The 99s were overrated due to a intake manifold that did not flow as it should, most cars got fixed under a recall and should be the same as 01s.

    180 vs 160 Thermostat

    Does anyone know how to set up the fan control on a Predator so that it comes on at the proper times with say, a 180* thermostat? Or how to adjust the fan controls at all? I don't really understand what the values mean.

    Overheating?

    I'm not sure how it was tested but it sat for about an hour before they did. I can tell you I have a new coolant temp sensor and a new fan control module. Forgot what its called but it is $140 and basically a black box that regulates when the fan comes on and and when it goes off. I have...

    Overheating?

    Well like I said it doesn't happen all the time, at least not on the highway. Yes I replaced the radiator cap and I tested it with a pressure tester. The reason I replaced the radiator was it was doing this during the summer and I had a small coolant leak. It turned out the leak was from the...
