    Thoughts on this '99 L?

    Thoughts on this '99? I'm looking to get into another Lightning. I used to have a '00 L (bought new), but I only owned it for a couple of years before trading it in on an '03 Cobra. I loved that truck and have missed it ever since. I've always thought about getting another one, and now I'm...

    Aluminator problems...

    Ok, this whole fiasco started many years ago when several factors led to a melted piston in my '04 Cobra's stock engine. I spent a lot of time and money having the engine rebuilt by two different machine shops - and suffered major engine failures both times. Ford Racing then released the...

    What's it worth?

    Hey all! I'm a long time member of the site, but I don't think I've ever posted in this forum before today. Anyway, I figured this would be the best place to ask about a '93 Cobra. My brother-in-law, Mike, works with a guy who owns a '93 Cobra. I guess the guy saw Mike getting out of his 5.0...

    Anyone with a Predator...

    I need your help. The wiring ripped out of the connector of my Predator and I need to know which wire goes to which pin. If anyone with a Predator could take just a minute and take their connector apart (4 screws) and tell me where the wires are soldered, I would greatly appreciate it!

    About the sticky on oil pan capacity...

    I just read the sticky titled "Oil pan capacity test pics" (http://www.svtperformance.com/forums/showthread.php?t=413036&highlight=lash+adjusters&page=6) and had a couple of thoughts. First, high RPM shouldn't matter. There is a check valve in the oil pump assembly that opens and dumps excess...

    WTB: '03/'04 Cobra short or long block

    I'm looking for a stock Terminator motor. I really only need the short block, but if someone has an engine with the heads I would be interested as well. I don't need the blower, accessories, electronics or anything else. Let me know what you've got. You can contact me either through this thread...

    Coil over spring rate questions

    I'm thinking about buying a UPR tubular k-member, control arm, and coilover kit for my '04 Cobra. Problem is that I don't know what spring rates I should go with. I'm going to keep the stock struts, shocks, and rear springs (for now). It looks like they use Eibach springs and you can get either...

    Any experience with DSS modular short blocks?

    I killed the #2 piston in my Cobra and I'm looking for a new shortblock. DSS Racing shows a "Super MODular" 5.0L stroker using a new aluminum block for $5500 or a 4.6L with aluminum block for $4900 on their website. Anyone know what blocks they're using? Is anyone on this site running a DSS...

    Another good way to stop belt slip

    I'm sure a few of you may have tried this before, but it really helps out on my car. I have a 2.93 upper and 4# lower pulley. I've always had problems with the belt slipping a little bit, even with a non-slip pulley, idlers, and an overly tight belt. Well, I had some extra VHT lying around and...

    Hey sambandit...

    I'm gonna smoke you! :mj: Just kidding, but I was pretty excited. 11.185 @ 125 mph last night at Bandimere. :-D If I can get the damn thing to hook I should be in the 10's for sure. I did add some new parts in case you were wondering. I finally did a Steigemeier ported blower (those guys...

    Need opinions. '07 Shelby or keep the '04 and go 10's?

    I know, I know. To some of you this wouldn't be much of a dilemma. But it's tearing me apart. My wife could care less, but she wants me to get the new car. Probably just because it'd be new. But then one of my good buds refuses to let me sell my '04 Cobra. He says we've got too much history in...

    Dead even with a (turbo?) LS1 Camaro

    Last night we were driving home from the Mile High Nationals on I-25 when my buddy spotted a black SS Camaro up ahead. I was on the sticky tires with a full bottle, so I figured I'd catch him and have some fun. We got closer and I noticed a HUGE single exhaust (5"?) turned down in front of the...

    What's this truck worth?

    I'm looking at maybe buying a Powerstroke tomorrow and was wondering what some of you think it's worth. It's a '97 F-250 4x4 5-speed extended cab short box. It's red with red interior (not my favorite, but could be worse). The truck has 89,000 miles and this guy is the second owner (bought it...

    Raced some crotch rockets...

    All the regular 'fast' guys were busy working on their cars last night in preparation for All Ford Day at Bandimere on Sunday. NONE of the regular street racers were out. It was nothing but a clown convention. However, my cousin is in town from Pennsylvania for the week and I wanted to at least...
