    Ticking Sound 3rd Gen Coyote

    that's dumb. 18 was the first year of the 3rd gen. if he's got a bad ring or they didn't seat he's gonna be a lot more pissed when he has to pay out of pocket to fix it. this is why i ripped on it pretty hard early on and heat cycled it a lot to try and give the rings the best chance of seating...

    Subframe connector installed but fuel lines

    just cut the fuel lines and patch them. its what I did. sure you could replace the whole thing... but why? its a straw for fuel. I put a little flare on the tip of each line and keep the hose in place. haven't had any issues after many hours of use.

    Hydroboost/ps pump issues?

    pulleys are all stock. there is a pressure relief valve internal to the pump which should open bypassing the pump entirely when it reaches a certain pressure. this is to prevent the system from overpowering the rotor and thusly stopping it (as far as I understand it). so I set up a test. this...

    Hydroboost/ps pump issues?

    so the car does really great, the only thing is that if i stand on the brakes (like in a way that you'd never do even driving spiritedly) the engine will die if at idle. its really an edge case so it doesn't bother me too much but i would like to get this sorted. any body got any ideas? its...

    97 Cobra RestoTouRod

    its the largest braille they make so if you get in a pinch however you decide to mount it should be able to take something else. I built the frame for it to be very specific. hopefully it lasts a long time :D
