Since the tranny will be coming out, and I have that Spec flywheel, and made it easy to just replace the friction plate thought it would be best just to replace it. I'll look at different vendors. It was just easier to use their site this time. Normally I ordered from Lethal. I have a...

Oh, no! Not another clutch thread. Actually, I think I've done all the research and I just need verification that I have everything that I need. My old Spec Stage2 clutch with the low pedal effort only lasted for 10K miles with me only having a pullied car. And I'm a mile high so HP is down...

Stinger 609 Production Engine - YouTube I think he should build a miniature 4V FI Supercharged motor next. A mini cobra motor. Hmm... So many uses around the house. Upgrade the lawn mower, vacuum cleaner. Endless possibilities.

At first I was going to post this in another thread, but I did not want to hijack it. I'm planning on running 17x10.5" wheels with a 3/8" hub centric spacers and 315s on all four corners. What is the best brake kit that fits 17" wheels? I was wanting to go with a big brake kit, but it...

I'm trying to find out exactly what is necessary to run a 17x10.5 rim and 315's on the front. I was thinking I need new front fenders like those from Tiger Racing: Tiger-Racing Has anyone tried running 315's in the front and what is necessary to do this. I'm sure the road racers like Jimmy...

Due to factors this year, my Subaru SVX beater had to be put out to pasture a few months ago. I really had no choice but to drive the Cobra in the snow this winter. So after a few Denver snow storms and I can now give an opinion about driving the Cobra in the snow. And the verdict is ...

I'm looking for a pair of OEM Satin 17x9 wheels. Message me if you're interested in a sell. I don't really care of they have curb rash or such. It's just going to be on for winter.

The new 2010 GT500 is supposed to have dual knock sensors. Can these be added to our 4.6? Where are they located? I thought our computer had the information for knock sensors that it was just turned off in the factory tune.

Quest for more RPMS or Cubic Inches So it's been one of my goals to put a Ford GT block under my hood. But the amount work to get it to fit, and to clear the stock hood, not to mention all the custom work that has to be done, just makes it seem like it's going to be huge monetary investment to...

Well, got about 20K miles out of my GS-D3's and now they are down to their wear marks. So now it's time for new tires. I live in Castle Rock, Colorado, but I do not drive it in the snow. But I will drive it during winter when there is no sand out and it will be above freezing during the day...

So I've been thinking over building something completely different than what has been done before. I've been mulling over the idea of a compound setup, but after reading everything I can find on twin turbo going into a supercharger, I don't think it's the way to go. Just too much boost for too...

I was looking forward to picking up the new 2010 Ford SHO for a second daily driver or when I don't feel like driving the Cobra (Does that ever happen?) and driving in the snow. Well, that evaporated after reading this review: First Drive: 2010 Ford Taurus SHO offers excellence without...

In the last two issues of MM&FF, they built a Ford GT block using GT500 heads. They also hooked up the GT500 and KB superchargers. They built it to handle a 1000HP and they were calling it their GT1000 engine. I'm very partial to the Ford GT block and have been told it will take a LOT of...

My Retrofiter finished up my lights and is shipping them out today. I wanted to get HID lights done right and have the absolute best product available. After months of researching, I choose my retrofiter and the product I wanted installed. I took Taz's Cobra as an example and researched from...

My HID retrofit has been completed. But my retrofiter has given me the option of painting the reflectors black. I like that aspects of it being black, but I also think the chrome looks okay. Here is a link with a different brand of light and the first set of pictures has it blacked out, and...
