    1995 Cobra R Paint Color

    Hello all, I have one brand new 1995 Cobra R wheel and 3 old ones that need to be repainted to match. I've bought two different "argent" paints offered by VHT and Ford Motorsports, and neither of them is a good match for the original rim. The main difference is that the paint on the original rim...

    Are fox heaters really this bad?

    Second thing I'd check is if the heater core has been bypassed by a previous owner. If so, you should see two connectors poking through the firewall on the passenger side.

    Are fox heaters really this bad?

    I had this when I first got my gt back in 1998. The issue was a leak in the water pump caused the fluid level to be below the level of the core, so no heated water was circulating through the core. First thing to check is the level of the coolant in your radiator. My guess is it's low.

    How to port iron GT40s

    Loved it! Great writeup. Nice to hear your opinions along with the results. Most of the time it's just a "how to" without any of the thought process that went along with it. Your story made me LOL to myself as it could have easily been me with these "hard earned" words of wisdom. Thanks for sharing.
