    Attaching LMAF without mounting ears?

    I have a stock intake, guy has a 90mm LMAF for $60, sensor + housing, but he cut the mounting ears off the housing. I am pretty certain the sensor needs to match the housing it's (I think) calibrated for, correct? If so: I have the stock cobra intake, unsure how I'd go about mounting it up. I'll...

    Stock timing of 2.1 Kenne Bell kit?

    Ahhh I was thinking of about 10psi tops and running a custom made intercooler from mlackke, especially because I think I will be building a forged shortblock with B heads with the cooler setup. I never really thought of running an IC + water injection to be honest either until now lol

    Stock timing of 2.1 Kenne Bell kit?

    The best part is that it was a tuner :p Never heard any pinging on dyno especially, seen 19*, went oh shit and dialed it back down. Either placebo or it actually has more power with being at 15-16*. He thought it wasn't getting into boost but boost gauge showing a good 5-6psi. Wanted to check...

    Stock timing of 2.1 Kenne Bell kit?

    So I'm trying to figure out WOT timing for my setup. 2.1 KB @6psi, realized tuner had me at 19* which I think is way too high for this application. Lowered it to 15-16* and wanted to ask the forums here what timing Kenne Bell has these kits stock, or even what similar guys run? Only thing...

    Kenne Bell Boost Level Question

    Glad I read this thread. I was about to throw the stock crank pulley back on as the KB guys said it'd be about 10psi of boost.. jesus christ.

    Rear upper control arm bushings for upper side?

    Thanks guys. What I was worried about but oh well upgrade time! Guess I can take this time to ask a quick small question: anyone had pinion leaking gear oil even after metal sleeve installed, new pinion sleeve, AND RTV added to the flange threads?

    Rear upper control arm bushings for upper side?

    I can't seem to find bushing replacements for the upper bushing of the rear upper control arm, are they replaceable? I didn't want to replace the whole arm if I didn't have to but I can't seem to find them

    Can't find Moates QuarterHorse for sale anywhere

    I just realized it's a 95 Cobra, I thought 96. Yeah you'd unfortunately have to hunt high and low for a QH. If you get the QH package from Coretuning it's really worth it. If someone was to sell a QH nowadays it'd be at least $500 because you can't find them anywhere.

    Can't find Moates QuarterHorse for sale anywhere

    Are you planning on using Binary Editor or TunerPro RT? I'm running a QH and I almost sold mine to go SCT but was warned by many others that QH is superior, which I knew already, but tuning shops strictly only use SCT around here and I was about to abandon DIY tuning my own.

    New '96 Cobra Owner.. Tons of questions!

    Insurance was only liability as I didn't have it on the road quite yet. Planned on putting comprehensive / full coverage on it today but.. yep. This is all spraypaint by the way. The quarter still hasn't been repaired on the passenger rear so I'm only doing cheap $60 spray paint jobs until I...

    New '96 Cobra Owner.. Tons of questions!

    Going to use this first ever post of mine as a progress thread of mine. There has been a LOT that has happened since my last update. We sprayed the car blue. The rings were bad in the original engine and tearing down we found cylinder #4 scratched up to the point it needed bored + honed...

    What did you do for your Terminator today?

    Stupid question, obviously don't have a termi, but how are you guys DIY tuning spark on the street without blowing it up? Actually have both a moates qh + lasota handbook (though have not looked thru it in half a year) but gave up for remote tuners but I get replies sparingly so trying to DIY...

    Recommended remote tuners? 2.1 KB 96 Cobra

    Have a 96 Cobra, looking for a remote tuner that isn't backed up and can get going within a month. 2.1 Kenne Bell recent installed. DIY tuned to having it halfway driveable and looking for someone to. Have a tuner somewhat but it's an on and off ordeal. Don't know if it'll be a week, month, or...

    Any T45 guys here?

    Right now everything's good besides going through two TOBs, a National replacement, and a FRPP TOB and the latter makes less noise (with pedal pressed) than the other so I'm going with it. I assumed maybe there's a certain amount of wear time before it goes completely away since there was a thin...

    Any T45 guys here?

    I've ran the transmission for around 5k-10k miles over the last 2-3 years. There's been a lot of downtime with it. I may be way low on the mileage. It was only after throwing an engine from a lincoln mark 8 in, new pilot bearing, then a few hundred miles (approximately) it suddenly started...

    Any T45 guys here?

    So my question is, if it's shimmed, how would the space be loosening up? My thoughts were bearings but they were all mint and recently replaced (other than by me) from the apperances. I suppose from the gears wearing out between main and counter shaft causing the extra play? The pilot bearing...

    Any T45 guys here?

    So end play I've found is actually measuring input shaft with transmission vertical and pushing upwards on the output shaft. The side to side play, there's zero specs about it. I replaced the input shaft bearing + race along with the countershaft and didn't touch the others because they looked...

    Any T45 guys here?

    A couple videos showing the knocking noise at idle. Second one you can hear it the best. Wanted some more opinions and ideas before I reinstall the trans Interior of the trans looks great. Replaced shift fork pads, noticed reverse sleeve is marred up some, but otherwise bearings and races look...

    Any T45 guys here?

    Trans fully pulled apart. Bearings and races look to be excellent. The input shaft bearing was Timken, not 100% sure if that's OEM or not, but it's replaced now at least.

    Any T45 guys here?

    Pulled my T45 due to at low RPM idle it would sound like it was knocking. Scared me because I thought it was rod knock but it went away once the clutch was pressed in. Input shaft had some more play side to side than I remember but it had a slight play in and out that I've heard is from the...

    Is this pre-ignition noise?

    I actually managed to get some time to retard spark 7* across the board in that area. Semeed to be getting some detonation again but it wasn't as loud. Restored that entire area back to stock and it's running great now. Sometimes knock sensor picks up and retards around 2* at random times but I...

    Is this pre-ignition noise?

    Around 1.5k - 2.5k during acceleration in 3rd/4th gear when I'm almost lugging I'll have this noise: Is this pre-ignition? Knock sensors do indeed pick it up and retard timing by 5*, but I am not sure if it's something else and knock sensors think it's knock or if it actually is. I'm going to...
