[QUOTE="badcobra, post: 3505310, member: 20798"] Look under your intake manifold with a flaslight. If you clearly see a square pattern in the center of the valley, it's a Teksid. If they are diamond shaped, it's a WAP. If you find the casting# on the side, it should be RF-XR3E-6015-CA from the '01 model year. As stated, the rods that come in '03/04 Cobras are Manley h-beams and much stronger than GT or Mach rods. I had mine upgraded with ARP2000 bolts and they were also cryo treated. Many say there is no way these rods will live past 1000HP, but I do not believe that. I guess we'll find out. The teksid is much stronger in the critical areas than the WAP. It really was overkill for it's application. It's also stronger than the cast iron block for the same reasons. Ford started casting their own blocks because it was cheaper, and that is the WAP block. They aren't good for much over 700hp. You have it backwards...just an FYI. [/QUOTE]
