Been a while since i worked or even looked at the cobra, kinda lost motivation with it:sorry But after going to the American Muscle 2018 show i found the urge to finish what I started. Last weekend I pulled the trans back out to install the 3 dowel pins that I didn't know/forgot I needed to...

It's been a while since my last update, haven't done much with the cobra as i've been swamped with work. However i was able to track down that EGR bung i was searching for! I took a trip to my local ford dealership and went to the parts department, they gave me a diagram of the exhaust system...

Got the Pypes pipe-bomb catback delivered earlier this week. The box it was shipped in was absolutely mangled, but surprisingly nothing was damaged or missing! so i tackled that yesterday. I couldn't manage to get the Flowmaster catback off without cutting it unfortunately as the connections...

had a free weekend and decided to work on the car, as usual it fought me along the way. :swordfight: I started with finishing up the exhaust, installed the new o2 sensor, took the old o2 sensors out of the old BBK X, and hooked up the MIL eliminators, topped off brake, power steering and coolant...

LOL everyone asks me the same question My 200,000 mile pile 1999 GT has too much sentimental value for me to ever get rid of it. it was the first car I bought out of high school, the first car I really learned how to work on, first car I learned how to drive stick shift in and the people i've...

last four of my cobras vin is 1331

I probably could have done it without lowering the rack but it's only two bolts and it made it easier. What is different about the 03/04 control arms?

another day, another update. after getting the motor/trans bolted back in i started working on the other things that needed attention. i started with the front lower control arms. i was originally going to replace just the ball joints. however since these are press in style ball joints i would...

ummm sooo where's the high resolution of this picture? would make a badass background for my PC lol

WOW awesome thank you guys, one less thing i need to figure out lol

i think the hose to the right of the throttle body does but what about the shorter hose to the left of the throttle body?

Big update for this old cobra! Had a nice long weekend off from work for thanksgiving and decided what better time then this to put the motor back in! It wasn't to bad as i got to look at a 1967 mustang GT fastback that is being turned into a Shelby GT500 clone with original Shelby GT500 parts...

Nice to see someone else bring a cobra back to its former glory! it looks like it's coming along nicely since the first post

Got around to installing the resurfaced flywheel, clutch and pressure plate. super easy to do and yes i torqued everything to spec. Ended up going with a Ford Racing clutch kit, i didn't see the need to "over clutch" the car for the horsepower it's currently making. Anyways its a really nice...

got around to installing new studs and the "new" headers. for those wondering what header/manifold studs I used, I attached a picture below. They are Dorman brand part number 03411, they worked really well. installing the studs were super easy, applied some loc-tite to the threads that go into...

After searching around on the internet, it seems to me that at least the clutch disk was a RAM powergrip HD clutch which is a stage 3 clutch so that explains why it was so ridiculously stiff. I don't understand why they put such a race driven clutch in a bolt on cobra, oh well. still confused as...

Big update, i'm going to apologize for the quality of some of the pictures up front Finally got around to the heavy lifting on this project. Since it's labor day weekend i decided to do some labor intensive work lol. Put the car in the air with plans on dropping the trans to change the clutch...

Can confirm those cables are there, so looks like It still has IMRC Sent from my SM-G930V using Tapatalk

Just gonna leave this here... I'll update tomorrow Sent from my SM-G930V using Tapatalk

Im not sure if it still have them or not, next time i drive it ill have to see if i feel a power difference around 3,500rpm. unless there is an easier way to tell without taking the intake manifold off lol I said seemingly because that was before i had a chance to get it up on a lift and...

Went with Centric front rotors and pads. For the rear i had a set of Powerstop drilled and slotted rotors and pads from when i was going to do a rear cobra brake swap on my 1999 GT but decided not to so i used them.

finally got around to working on the cobra, front rotors and pads along with an oil change. next up is dropping the trans to replace the clutch and install new headers, which look awful i don't know why people love long tubes so much lol

After some googling it turns out it's the Engine Control Module (ECM) code for the car

Well i see Photobucket got greedy and is now charging people to post pictures on other websites, guess i'll go back and try and fix the pictures :mad: Anyway another small update, after having new BBK long tubes ordered for two months and getting pushed back four different times i decided to...
