total days wrenching...6 1/2 days...two cars gutted and now just waiting on parts to start putting it back together...oh found out my radiator is Mushimoto, which is a added plus
First thing's first, FINALLY! :beer:
Good to finally see your car getting the swap done dude, I remember all those times people talked shit about your car having Cobra panels lol where they at now? :crickets:
Just a friendly tip, the easiest way to get the bushings on the cradle where it mounts to the body off is to drill the SHIT out of those things like make one hole next to another then take slide a bolt you're not gonna use into the sleeve and give it a tap with a hammer then use a screwdriver to fold the outer wall of the bushing and it'll rip right out.
I've done a FTBR IRS bushing install and I learned my way around it so if you run into any difficulties my PM box is empty brotha :beer:
Maybe im tired and don't see it right. But did you really strip a cobra in good condition just to swap it into a v6? Or was the cobra totaled?
nice, finally made cpl! lol.
Is that the Miramar Hobby Shop? good luck w/ the project
nope, took leave to do this, im in madera, CA
I'm sorry
Funny, how there used to be 10+ pages of haters. Now maybe a handful come in here to show props.
no shit right. I remember it, and still dont remember what the hate came from, other than I think cause he had a v6 with a silver stripe.
Im so glad to hear hes proving the haters wrong. If I were heading down there anytime in the next week or so id easily stop by to see progress.
BTW I thought the easiest way to get rid of the old bushings was a blow torch......never said it was the most odor free......
congrats on finally getting the powertrain underway. i bet it feels long overdue.
