Ha, lots of emotion going into this thread. First, as I said a few times in this thread I expected some backlash and haven’t once complained about any comments. 2nd I am also not complaining about not getting the money for my mods back. Simply stating that I have done them and since they can’t...

I realized I risked some backlash when I posted this. No one ever wants to see a perfectly good car hacked up. That said, I have looked at from many perspectives. Getting a wrecked cobra doesn’t really work because I can use, and need to all of the brakes, suspension, etc. I think most arent...

Guys you seem to think I haven’t done my homework here and I’m guessing about all of this. I have been building cars for 20 yrs. the shop I have doing the framework wrote the book on mod motor swaps, I mean literally wrote the book: How to Swap Ford Modular Engines into Mustangs, Torinos and...

I appreciate the feedback guys, but I think you all are underestimating the cost of a coyote swap. I have a 2017 coyote twin turbo and 1000cc sport bikes aren’t an issue (I have one of those too). The point of the 67 isn’t to be faster but at least more fun to drive and turn heads. If it’s going...

I think we agree there is better technology out there. The reason to do it though is I already have it, and it’s still far superior to a 67 289 motor. As for the other comments around selling and buying another power train, do the math. As was pointed out I could potentially get mid 20’s for...

Hello all, Long time member here, had the cobra since 04. I’ve put a lot of blood, sweat and money into my cobra and would never get it back from selling. However, I also found I never drive it any more because I have newer better technology cars that are just more fun to drive (07 Z06, 2017 GT...

When I was on Nitto's with similar IRS mods I would rarely cut under a 2.0 60 ft. Switched to Viking DA shocks front and rear and Mickey Thompson ET street 2 18's and it cuts low 1.6 60 ft's on stock clutch and race weight of 4000lbs+ in my vert. I think it has 1.5's in it with a better clutch...

Those are good numbers, on corn I would expect a bit more. The bigger blowers need to be spun up more to see the real results. I have the old school 2.2 (an inferior blower but I love the scream too much to change it)and put down 674 on 91 and meth at 19 psi. Don't remember the timing. The...

I got a new personal best tonight at Bandimere (8069 DA). I was hoping for the 10's but my clutch wasn't having it. Overall I am happy with what the combo did however. Race weight 3975, running 18" drag radials on the IRS and stock clutch was pulling 1.6 60' all night. I'm thinking it's got a...

So I went to the track a couple months ago and couldn't get traction at all. Nitto NT555R might as well be regular street tires on this car. Was getting 2.2 60ft, lots of spin and some hop. I had already done all of the IRS upgrades, MM IRS bushings, Aluminum diff bushings and delrin everywhere...

I recently ordered (and am trying to install) a set of double adjustable rear viking shocks part B225 on my 03 cobra IRS. The problem is the lower eyelet is considerably larger than the bolt and there is no sleeve with them. There is what appears to be a spacer that is the correct size, but it...

As the title says, I'm looking to buy some D10's. Preferably in the 6.2" back spacing designed for the IRS but i can work with the 6-6.5" back spacing. Let me know if you are looking to sell or know a good place to buy. Thanks

I finally got around to getting this car back on the road, it has sat in the garage for years (literally put 200 miles on the car in the last 6 years). Summer was coming and it was time get it going. Threw the 2.2 Kenne Bell on it that I have had sitting for a few years, a new return style...

Hello all, I know there are mixed feelings out there on meth on these cars but I wanted get some thoughts from those running it. I just put a new setup in my car and am working on getting a tune and hope to up and running in a week or so. Here is my setup: -Kenne a Bell 2.2 w/3.1 upper and...

Looking for a factory A-pillar cover for 03/04, thought maybe one of you that replaced with an aftermarket gauge pillar would have a drivers side factory cover you are looking to part with. Let me know if you got one...
