I have a 99 with a fresh rebuilt. I have 03 heads installed. Forged Crank, Forged Rods, and Cast Aluminium pistons in. The pistons are slightly dished nothing crazy, but I have a full 03 terminator gasket kit in. I snapped a timing chain and either I got lucky or I have enough clearance that...
Good Morning fellas.
The past few weeks have been hectic for me but I finally got some time to work on my car.
I had an issue where code P0340 would show up and my car was only running on half the motor. After wire chasing for days, I decided to pop open the valve cover on the driver side...
I am having issues with my 99 cobra. About a week ago I lost all power to the engine and had to get towed. I have 400 miles on my rebuild after getting the kinks worked out of it.
Now I was able to get a reader from my friend and I threw code P0340 which is a cam position sensor code. I...
Morning SVT...again...
I have a 99 Cobra I have worked out all the kinks since the rebuild, I have about 600 miles on the motor now. I have been driving it back an fourth to work. However, yesterday on my way home I was cruising highway speeds and my motor seem quiet, I lost all power. I...

ALL,
Last year about this time I toasted the motor on my 99 cobra.
I went through a full rebuild, forged rods, pistons, clevite bearings, 03 head swap.
I did everything myself and got it running. Up till I blew it up the motor would stall from time to time. Now when i drive the car it stalls...
In my 99 Cobra that I blew up and now rebuilding, I ruined the crank.
The bearing cut the crank and it cannot be saved, so I need a new one.
Can someone post some links on where I can get a factory replacement one? Or can I use the same crank as a GT?
I am learning fast that finding parts for...
I am in the middle of rebuilding my blow 99 and there is no way I am putting a ticking head back on. That being said I won't touch the heads in terms of rebuilding and the local guy said it would cost me about 1200$ if he does them. So I found a set of Terminator heads on ebay. Can I just bolt...
As some of you may know, a little more than a month ago I blew up my 99 Cobra. The rod bearing spun and bent then snapped the rod. The motor is fixable.
I want to turn this car into a drag car and make it a daily driver as well. A few days ago, a co-worker of my step father texted me saying...
Good afternoon SVT,
About a month ago I posted a thread saying RIP to my 99 cobra.
After wrenching and wrestling it in my garage, I was able to get the motor out and strip it completely down. The passenger rear connecting rod snapped in half. It looks as if the rod bearing went and welded...
Well, guys. Today it happened, the tiny little head tick I had on the passenger side that I am getting heads machined for blew today. I was heading into work, just cruising, enjoying the weather and my 99 cobra with 90k on it developed a knock. A BAAADDDDD knock. I am hoping I bent a valve, but...
This is my first post to this forum. So hello all.
I have a 99 cobra with the IRS and I bought it back in October in OHIO and it was lowered. It has caster camber plates, but the struts and shocks are nothing special. Well, living in PA is a terrible state for a lowered car. What are the best...
