So this might be a dumb question but are i know mach 1's are 32 valve 4.6's. but ive heard 99 and 01 cobra motors are weak(like crappy top and bottom end) and cant hold that much power, and i just want to know if they are the same motor?

Hello, so my problem is my car is freshly rebuilt 306 with 650 carb, f303 cam, afr165 heads, 1.6 RR. and for the first time i got on it in 2nd gear. and after i got on it, it just died(fell on its face) as if it totally ran out of gas even though it had 1/2 a tank. and after it died, it wouldnt...

Today is a sad day. It is the first day without my cobra. I sold it at around noon yesterday. It feels so weird not having it. Ive made so many memories, good and bad with it. It was a 95 and had bolt ons.. ended up sellin it for a measly 3700. I bought it stock for 4K.. :( But you know when...

So I was with my girl last night, and we went out to do something and she was like do you wanna take your car or my car, and i was like.. ill give it a break for once, and i knew it wasnt like we were gunna see an "race" worthy cars cuz around me we've got prius' and all other junk. I feel like...

Ok. so i put a 70mm throttle body on my 95, i have a couple questions.. they might be dumb ones but im not sure. First off is the accelerator pedal is really tight/stiff compared to before, and my idle is around 900 constantly. I played around with the valve idle adjuster, and 900 is the lowest...

I thought i would be techy enough to post pictures on this site but cant figure it out. Ive got some pics of my 95 but it keeps asking me to put in a url. But my photos arent online. theyr on my desktop. im confused

Ok after a little trouble, and a little help. i think i mananged to get the photos on. http://i943.photobucket.com/albums/ad279/skate47e/Cobrapics051.jpg http://i943.photobucket.com/albums/ad279/skate47e/Cobrapics050.jpg http://i943.photobucket.com/albums/ad279/skate47e/Cobrapics049.jpg...

So ive got a 95 cobra with cat back exhaust. Ive got the headers which are goin on next week. short shifter. Cold air intake. 373's. and im kinda stumpd on what to do next. I dont have a ton of money to spend. but maybe like 500-600.. what do you think? i was thinking maybe throttle body, or...

So my buddy has been bugging me for a while to race his 97 jetta. hes always talked it up so much. sayin its fast as shit, it can beat your mustang, he has everything ported and polished, a cold air, exhaust(which sounds like a fart can) lightweight flywheel gutted everything from the rear...

As the title states my buddy and I want to set up a race, his 04 saleen(non supercharged) has a catback, CAI, 373's, and throttlebody. And my 95 has bbk headers, bassani X to flows, CAI, 373's racing wires, and a short shifter. Ive heard that 5.0's are torque monsters compared to the 4.6's, so...

i just got the 373's put in today in my 95 cobra. What a difference it makes. My car spins the tires in 1st and 2nd... My 2nd gear pulls with the 373's feels like my old 1st gear pull without them. Im really glad i went with them. I guess this is just an update but its good.

So one of my friends recently got an 04 audi s4 v8 about a month ago, and she keeps sayin she could whoop my ass. Ive had my cobra for about a year and its got a cat back exhaust, short shifter, racing wires, a cold air intake, and a tune. its roughly at 235rwhp. Her audi supposedly runs 320...

Ive got a 95 cobra that is relatively stock, its got an exhaust, a CAI, and a short shifter, and ive been told many times that my next mod should no doubt be gears. People say i should definately go with 3:73's. So im hopefully buying a set this week. Is this a good investment. Thanks

I woke up early and took my 95 over to the shop. so they bumped the timing, gave it a couple pulls and it managed 225rwhp. and 268 rwtq. My cobra has 104,000 on it, its got catback exhaust, and a bbk cold air intake. It was 96 degrees in the shop.and was very humid. :( I was a little...
